I had to actually read this patch a number of times and then realized I

it more obvious what you mean.

However I think it'd be much clearer if we just passed the value of
bl->props.brightness into the callbacks, that way we can avoid the
additional variable.

This won't work I'm afraid, as brightness can be modified prior to being passed to the callback function:

        if (bl->props.power != FB_BLANK_UNBLANK)
                brightness = 0;

        if (bl->props.fb_blank != FB_BLANK_UNBLANK)
                brightness = 0;

        if (pb->notify)
                brightness = pb->notify(pb->dev, brightness);
