It seems that some laptops will report having both an eDP and LVDS
connector, even though only the LVDS connector is actually hooked up. This
can lead to issues with backlight registration if the eDP connector ends up
getting registered before the LVDS connector, as the backlight device will
then be registered to the eDP connector instead of the LVDS connector.

So, fix this by only registering the backlight on connectors that are
reported as being connected.
