drm/i915: use pch backlight override on hsw too
Currently the difference between backlight control on HSW vs. BDW/SKL is that on HSW we modify the duty cycle on the CPU register, and have the hardware pass the changes on to the PCH registers. We still drive the PCH PWM on both. While HSW and BDW use the same LPT PCH, BDW does not pass these messages on to the PCH. Therefore on BDW we need to enable the PCH override bit, and program the PCH directly. (On SPT PCH, this mode is the default.) We could as well do this on HSW too, and in fact I've been told this is what a certain other operating system does. So use PCH backlight override on HSW too. This simplifies some follow-up code, but it does have the danger of breaking backlight on HSW machines. It should work, but mysterious are the ways of backlight. While at it, name the related backlight hooks according to the PCH rather than the CPU for clarity.
