Looking at the Changelog, this commit sounds like the most probable offender:

        drm/i915: Fix blank panel at reopening lid

    changed the register write sequence for restoring the backlight, which
    helped prevent non-working backlights on some machines. Turns out that
    the original sequence was the right thing to do for a different set of
    machines. Worse, setting the backlight level _after_ enabling it seems
    to reset it somehow. So we need to make that one conditional upon the
    backlight having been reset to zero, and add the old one back.

    Cargo-culting at it's best, but it seems to work.
