Subject: [PATCH V2] video: backlight: Drop maximum brightness override for brightness zero
Date: Tue, 13 Jul 2021 21:16:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210713191633.121317-1-marex@denx.de> (raw)

The note in c2adda27d202f ("video: backlight: Add of_find_backlight helper
in backlight.c") says that gpio-backlight uses brightness as power state.
This has been fixed since in ec665b756e6f7 ("backlight: gpio-backlight:
Correct initial power state handling") and other backlight drivers do not
require this workaround. Drop the workaround.

This fixes the case where e.g. pwm-backlight can perfectly well be set to
brightness 0 on boot in DT, which without this patch leads to the display
brightness to be max instead of off.

Fixes: c2adda27d202f ("video: backlight: Add of_find_backlight helper in backlight.c")
