For years I've been using a dirty Python script that listens on DBus for
keyboard backlight events and then keeps pushing the last heard value
through DBus every several seconds. Works fine most of the time, but
something turns off the backlight after a day or two of uptime (varies).

Kieran's solution doesn't work for Samsung NP940X3L. I tried to set it for the
following value:
xxd -p
/sys/firmware/efi/efivars/KBDBacklitLvl-5af56f53-985c-47d5-920c-f1c531d06852
070005
Backlight goes on briefly during early boot stages but then shuts off.
