For backlight curves calculated with the CIE 1931 algorithm set
the brightness scale type to non-linear. This makes the scale type
available to userspace via the 'scale' sysfs attribute.

Changes in v3:
- mark scale as non-linear instead of using the CIE1931 type which
has been removed
- updated commit message
Changes in v2:
- added Enric's 'Tested-by' tag
- added Daniel's 'Acked-by' tag
