Now I see what happened.  I have 2 trees from you, the backlight tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lee/backlight.git#for-backlight-next)
and the leds-lj tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lee/leds.git#for-leds-next)
and the former implicitly depends on the latter (and I merge the
backlight tree first).  You should make that dependency explicit by
merging (part of) the latter into the former (or something).
