Changing backlight intensity on an Akita (Sharp Zaurus C-1000)
triggers WARN_ON message:

Akita machines have backlight controls hooked to a gpio expander chip,
max7310 using i2c transfers which can sleep.
In this case, pca953x_gpio_set_value() can be called to control
gpio, and pca953x_setup_gpio() sets can_sleep flag. Therefore,
gpio_set_value_cansleep() should be used in order to avoid WARN_ON on
akita machines.

Akita is the only exception in this case since other users of corgi_lcd
access backlight gpio controls through a different gpio expander
which does not set the can_sleep flag.
