[PATCH] gpio-backlight: Discover driver during boot time

From: Arun Bharadwaj
Date: Wed Apr 15 2015 - 20:21:44 EST


The gpio-backlight driver seems to be missing the
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE line which is preventing it from
being modprobed during boot time even if the
gpio-backlight device exists.

This seems to be a bug and this patch attempts to
fix that.
