So, during init put backlight GPIO to off state and the driver code will decide which output to enable.

And second point is, the request is happening for backlight gpio (which is not something MUST required), so even if we fail to get handle here I think we should not return an error, just flag the warning and continue. Let me understand, why do you want to return from middle of function, for backlight gpio request, which means we will not call "platform_device_register" for leds_gpio and many other things. And also if you look at the twl4030-gpio.c, we do same thing - } else if (pdata->setup) { int status; status = pdata->setup(&pdev->dev, pdata->gpio_base, TWL4030_GPIO_MAX); if (status) dev_dbg(&pdev->dev, "setup --> %d\n", status); } return ret; I hope this clarifies your doubts.
