This is really weird, as CONFIG_FB_BACKLIGHT just selects
BACKLIGHT_CLASS and LCD_CLASS, and adds an entry (bl_curve)
under /sys/class/backlight/*/. ACPI_IBM which is set (presumably) in
Dave's kconfig, also selects the BACKLIGHT_CLASS. And the only possible
framebuffer drivers in the thinkpad are vesafb and intelfb, none of
which has a backlight driver.
I'm still at a loss how this happens. Dave, can you post your config?
And have you tried the following settings:
FB_BACKLIGHT=y
ACPI_IBM=n
ACPI_VIDEO=n
I'm also adding Richard Purdie to the CC list.

PS: I also get a blank display on resume with a Toshiba laptop. But
cycling through the Fn keys brings it back. I don't know if this is a
regression, I will have to try older kernels.
