[PATCH v17 00/10] Add backlight helper functions

From: Meghana Madhyastha
Date: Fri Jan 19 2018 - 05:38:18 EST


Move drm helper functions from tinydrm-helpers to linux/backlight for
ease of use by callers in other drivers.

changes in v17:
-set fb_blank along with clearing the BL_CORE_FBBLANK bit
-rebase with drm-misc-next
-fix checkpath errors/warnings
-Make the gpio_backlight issue appear as a comment in the
code and not as part of the docs
-rebase with drm-misc-next
-convert st7735r callers from tinydrm specific helpers
to new generic backlight helpers
-remove select BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT and select
BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE from tinydrm/Kconfig
-fix checkpath errors/warnings
-rename devm_backlight_put to
devm_backlight_release
-remove redundant NULL check
-remove put_device() to avoid double put
as we are using the devm version
