Quite a big redesign of the feature - both structures and code have been
simplified and should be easier to read and understand, data duplication is
avoided, and much less memory allocations take place at runtime. Usage
interface is also simpler and IMHO more logical.

What happened is that platform_power_seq and power_seq have been merged,
and so power sequences declared as platform data are used "as-is". The
"build" step is not needed anymore - resources are allocated when a
power sequence is added into a set.

There is still one design flaw that I would like to solve: sequences are
still tied to a device, i.e. if you have two devices that use the same
powering scheme, you have to declare two identical power sequences and assign
each of these to one device. It would be much more flexible if sequences could
be shared across devices. The problem is that the resources structure,
references by steps, cannot be shared. Actually we could share it by having
a linked list of devices and resolved resources in the resource structure and
thus share power sequences over devices. That would work for regulator and
PWM resources, which have a get_regulator/pwm(dev, id) function that could
return a different resource depending on the device that is passed.
But there is no similar get_gpio() function for GPIOs which number is directly
specified in the resource, and I don't know if such a function would make
sense otherwise. Opinions on the subject are welcome.

Some device drivers (e.g. panel backlights ) need to follow precise
sequences for powering on and off, involving GPIOs, regulators, PWMs
with a precise powering order and delays to respect between each steps.
These sequences are device-specific, and do not belong to a particular
driver - therefore they have been performed by board-specific hook
functions to far.

With the advent of the device tree and of ARM kernels that are not
board-tied, we cannot rely on these board-specific hooks anymore but
need a way to implement these sequences in a portable manner. This patch
introduces a simple interpreter that can execute such power sequences
encoded either as platform data or within the device tree.

+Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences
+===================================
+
+Power sequences are sequential descriptions of actions to be performed on
+power-related resources. Having these descriptions in a well-defined data format
+allows us to take much of the board- or device- specific power control code out
+of the kernel and place it into the device tree instead, making kernels less
+board-dependant.
+
+A device typically makes use of multiple power sequences, for different purposes
+such as powering on and off. All the power sequences of a given device are
+grouped into a set. In the device tree, this set is a sub-node of the device
+node named "power-sequences".
+
+Power Sequences Structure
+-------------------------
+Every device that makes use of power sequences must have a "power-sequences"
+node into which individual power sequences are declared as sub-nodes. The name
+of the node becomes the name of the sequence within the power sequences
+framework.
+
+Similarly, each power sequence declares its steps as sub-nodes of itself. Steps
+must be named sequentially, with the first step named step0, the second step1,
+etc. Failure to follow this rule will result in a parsing error.
+
+Power Sequences Steps
+---------------------
+Steps of a sequence describe an action to be performed on a resource. They
+always include a "type" property which indicates what kind of resource this
+step works on. Depending on the resource type, additional properties are defined
+to control the action to be performed.
+
+"delay" type required properties:
+  - delay: delay to wait (in microseconds)
+
+"regulator" type required properties:
+  - id: name of the regulator to use.
+  - enable / disable: one of these two empty properties must be present to
+                      enable or disable the resource
+
+"pwm" type required properties:
+  - id: name of the PWM to use.
+  - enable / disable: one of these two empty properties must be present to
+                      enable or disable the resource
+
+"gpio" type required properties:
+  - gpio: phandle of the GPIO to use.
+  - value: value this GPIO should take. Must be 0 or 1.
+
+Example
+-------
+Here are example sequences declared within a backlight device that use all the
+supported resources types:
+
+	backlight {
+		compatible = "pwm-backlight";
+		...
+
+		/* resources used by the power sequences */
+		pwms = <&pwm 2 5000000>;
+		pwm-names = "backlight";
+		power-supply = <&backlight_reg>;
+
+		power-sequences {
+			power-on {
+				step0 {
+					type = "regulator";
+					id = "power";
+					enable;
+				};
+				step1 {
+					type = "delay";
+					delay = <10000>;
+				};
+				step2 {
+					type = "pwm";
+					id = "backlight";
+					enable;
+				};
+				step3 {
+					type = "gpio";
+					gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+					value = <1>;
+				};
+			};
+
+			power-off {
+				step0 {
+					type = "gpio";
+					gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+					value = <0>;
+				};
+				step1 {
+					type = "pwm";
+					id = "backlight";
+					disable;
+				};
+				step2 {
+					type = "delay";
+					delay = <10000>;
+				};
+				step3 {
+					type = "regulator";
+					id = "power";
+					disable;
+				};
+			};
+		};
+	};
+
+The first part lists the PWM and regulator resources used by the sequences.
+These resources will be requested on behalf of the backlight device when the
+sequences are built and are declared according to their own bindings (for
+instance, regulators and pwms are resolved by name - note though that name
+declaration is done differently by the two frameworks).
+
+After the resources declaration, two sequences follow for powering the backlight
+on and off. Their names are specified by the pwm-backlight device bindings. Once
+the sequences are built by calling devm_of_parse_power_seq_set() on the
+backlight device, they can be added to a set using
+power_seq_set_add_sequences().

+Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences
+===================================
+
+Problem
+-------
+Very commonly, boards need the help of out-of-driver code to turn some of their
+devices on and off. For instance, SoC boards might use a GPIO (abstracted to a
+regulator or not) to control the power supply of a backlight. The GPIO that
+should be used, however, as well as the exact power sequence that may also
+involve other resources, is board-dependent and thus unknown to the driver.
+
+This was previously addressed by having hooks in the device's platform data that
+are called whenever the state of the device might need a power status change.
+This approach, however, introduces board-dependant code into the kernel and is
+not compatible with the device tree.
+
+The Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences (or power sequences for short) aim at
+turning this code into platform data or device tree nodes. Power sequences are
+described using a simple format and run by a lightweight interpreter whenever
+needed. This allows device drivers to work without power callbacks and makes the
+kernel less board-dependant.
+
+What are Power Sequences?
+-------------------------
+A power sequence is an array of sequential steps describing an action to be
+performed on a resource. The supported resources and actions operations are:
+- delay (just wait for a given number of microseconds)
+- GPIO (set to 0 or 1)
+- regulator (enable or disable)
+- PWM (enable or disable)
+
+When a power sequence is run, its steps is executed one after the other until
+one step fails or the end of the sequence is reached.
+
+Power sequences are named, and grouped into "sets" which contain all the
+sequences of a device as well as the resources they use.
+
+Power sequences can be declared as platform data or in the device tree.
+
+Platform Data Format
+--------------------
+All relevant data structures for declaring power sequences are located in
+include/linux/power_seq.h.
+
+The platform data for a device may include an instance of platform_power_seq_set
+which references all the power sequences used for a device. The power sequences
+reference resources in their steps, and setup the union member that corresponds
+to the resource's type. Resources, similarly, have a union which relevant member
+depends on their type.
+
+Note that the only "platform data" per se here is platform_power_seq_set. Other
+structures (power_seq and power_seq_resource) will be used at runtime and thus
+*must* survive initialization, so do not declare them with the __initdata
+attribute.
+
+The following example should make it clear how the platform data for power
+sequences is defined. It declares two power sequences named "power-on" and
+"power-off" for a backlight device. The "power-on" sequence enables the "power"
+regulator of the device, waits for 10ms, and then enables PWM "backlight" and
+set GPIO 28 to 1. "power-off" does the opposite.

+
+Device Tree
+-----------
+Power sequences can also be encoded as device tree nodes. The following
+properties and nodes are equivalent to the platform data defined previously:
+
+pwms = <&pwm 2 5000000>;
+pwm-names = "backlight";
+power-supply = <&vdd_bl_reg>;
+
+power-sequences {
+	power-on {
+		step0 {
+			type = "regulator";
+			id = "power";
+			enable;
+		};
+		step1 {
+			type = "delay";
+			delay = <10000>;
+		};
+		step2 {
+			type = "pwm";
+			id = "backlight";
+			enable;
+		};
+		step3 {
+			type = "gpio";
+			gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+			value = <1>;
+		};
+	};
+
+	power-off {
+		step0 {
+			type = "gpio";
+			gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+			value = <0>;
+		};
+		step1 {
+			type = "pwm";
+			id = "backlight";
+			disable;
+		};
+		step2 {
+			type = "delay";
+			delay = <10000>;
+		};
+		step3 {
+			type = "regulator";
+			id = "power";
+			disable;
+		};
+	};
+};
+
+See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_seq.txt for the complete
+syntax of the DT bindings.
+
+Use by Drivers and Resources Management
+---------------------------------------
+Power sequences make use of resources that must be properly allocated and
+managed. The power_seq_set structure manages the sequences and resources for a
+particular device. A driver willing to use power sequences will thus declare one
+instance of power_seq_set per device and initialize it at probe time:
+
+struct my_device_data {
+	struct device *dev;
+	...
+	struct power_set_set power_seqs;
+	...
+};
+
+power_seq_set_init(&my_device->power_seqs, my_device->dev);
+
+The power_seq_set_add_sequence() and power_seq_set_add_sequences() functions are
+then used to add one or several sequences to a set. These functions will also
+allocate all the resources used by the sequence(s) and make sure they are ready
+to be run. All resources are allocated through devm and will thus be freed when
+the set's device is removed.
+
+  int power_seq_set_add_sequence(struct power_seq_set *set,
+			         struct power_seq *seq);
+  int power_seq_set_add_sequences(struct power_seq_set *set,
+				  struct platform_power_seq_set *seqs);
+
+Power sequences added to a set can then be resolved by their name using
+power_seq_lookup():
+
+  struct power_seq *power_seq_lookup(struct power_seq_set *seqs,
+				     const char *id);
+
+power_seq_lookup() returns a ready-to-run pointer to the power sequence which
+name matches the id parameter.
+
+A retrieved power sequence can then be executed by power_seq_run:
+
+  int power_seq_run(struct power_seq *seq);
+
+It returns 0 if the sequence has successfully been run, or an error code if a
+problem occurred.
+
+Sometimes, you may want to browse the list of resources allocated for the
+sequences of a device, for instance to ensure that a resource of a given type is
+present. The power_seq_for_each_resource() macro does this:
+
+  power_seq_for_each_resource(pos, seqs)
+
+Here "pos" will be a pointer to a struct power_seq_resource. This structure
+contains the type of the resource, the information used for identifying it, and
+the resolved resource itself.
+
+Finally, users of the device tree can obtain a platform_power_seq_set structure
+built from the device's node using devm_of_parse_power_seq_set:
+
+  struct platform_power_seq_set *devm_of_parse_power_seq_set(struct device *dev);
+
+The power sequences must be declared under a "power-sequences" node directly
+declared under the device's node. Detailed syntax contained in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_seq.txt. As the function name
+states, all memory is allocated through devm. The returned
+platform_power_seq_set can be freed after being added to a set, but the
+sequences themselves must be preserved until they are freed by devm.

Some device drivers (e.g. panel backlights ) need to follow precise
sequences for powering on and off, involving GPIOs, regulators, PWMs
with a precise powering order and delays to respect between each steps.
These sequences are device-specific, and do not belong to a particular
driver - therefore they have been performed by board-specific hook
functions to far.

With the advent of the device tree and of ARM kernels that are not
board-tied, we cannot rely on these board-specific hooks anymore but
need a way to implement these sequences in a portable manner. This patch
introduces a simple interpreter that can execute such power sequences
encoded either as platform data or within the device tree.

+Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences
+===================================
+
+Power sequences are sequential descriptions of actions to be performed on
+power-related resources. Having these descriptions in a well-defined data format
+allows us to take much of the board- or device- specific power control code out
+of the kernel and place it into the device tree instead, making kernels less
+board-dependant.
+
+A device typically makes use of multiple power sequences, for different purposes
+such as powering on and off. All the power sequences of a given device are
+grouped into a set. In the device tree, this set is a sub-node of the device
+node named "power-sequences".
+
+Power Sequences Structure
+-------------------------
+Every device that makes use of power sequences must have a "power-sequences"
+node into which individual power sequences are declared as sub-nodes. The name
+of the node becomes the name of the sequence within the power sequences
+framework.
+
+Similarly, each power sequence declares its steps as sub-nodes of itself. Steps
+must be named sequentially, with the first step named step0, the second step1,
+etc. Failure to follow this rule will result in a parsing error.
+
+Power Sequences Steps
+---------------------
+Steps of a sequence describe an action to be performed on a resource. They
+always include a "type" property which indicates what kind of resource this
+step works on. Depending on the resource type, additional properties are defined
+to control the action to be performed.
+
+"delay" type required properties:
+  - delay: delay to wait (in microseconds)
+
+"regulator" type required properties:
+  - id: name of the regulator to use.
+  - enable / disable: one of these two empty properties must be present to
+                      enable or disable the resource
+
+"pwm" type required properties:
+  - id: name of the PWM to use.
+  - enable / disable: one of these two empty properties must be present to
+                      enable or disable the resource
+
+"gpio" type required properties:
+  - gpio: phandle of the GPIO to use.
+  - value: value this GPIO should take. Must be 0 or 1.
+
+Example
+-------
+Here are example sequences declared within a backlight device that use all the
+supported resources types:
+
+	backlight {
+		compatible = "pwm-backlight";
+		...
+
+		/* resources used by the power sequences */
+		pwms = <&pwm 2 5000000>;
+		pwm-names = "backlight";
+		power-supply = <&backlight_reg>;
+
+		power-sequences {
+			power-on {
+				step0 {
+					type = "regulator";
+					id = "power";
+					enable;
+				};
+				step1 {
+					type = "delay";
+					delay = <10000>;
+				};
+				step2 {
+					type = "pwm";
+					id = "backlight";
+					enable;
+				};
+				step3 {
+					type = "gpio";
+					gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+					value = <1>;
+				};
+			};
+
+			power-off {
+				step0 {
+					type = "gpio";
+					gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+					value = <0>;
+				};
+				step1 {
+					type = "pwm";
+					id = "backlight";
+					disable;
+				};
+				step2 {
+					type = "delay";
+					delay = <10000>;
+				};
+				step3 {
+					type = "regulator";
+					id = "power";
+					disable;
+				};
+			};
+		};
+	};
+
+The first part lists the PWM and regulator resources used by the sequences.
+These resources will be requested on behalf of the backlight device when the
+sequences are built and are declared according to their own bindings (for
+instance, regulators and pwms are resolved by name - note though that name
+declaration is done differently by the two frameworks).
+
+After the resources declaration, two sequences follow for powering the backlight
+on and off. Their names are specified by the pwm-backlight device bindings. Once
+the sequences are built by calling devm_of_parse_power_seq_set() on the
+backlight device, they can be added to a set using
+power_seq_set_add_sequences().

+Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences
+===================================
+
+Problem
+-------
+Very commonly, boards need the help of out-of-driver code to turn some of their
+devices on and off. For instance, SoC boards might use a GPIO (abstracted to a
+regulator or not) to control the power supply of a backlight. The GPIO that
+should be used, however, as well as the exact power sequence that may also
+involve other resources, is board-dependent and thus unknown to the driver.
+
+This was previously addressed by having hooks in the device's platform data that
+are called whenever the state of the device might need a power status change.
+This approach, however, introduces board-dependant code into the kernel and is
+not compatible with the device tree.
+
+The Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences (or power sequences for short) aim at
+turning this code into platform data or device tree nodes. Power sequences are
+described using a simple format and run by a lightweight interpreter whenever
+needed. This allows device drivers to work without power callbacks and makes the
+kernel less board-dependant.
+
+What are Power Sequences?
+-------------------------
+A power sequence is an array of sequential steps describing an action to be
+performed on a resource. The supported resources and actions operations are:
+- delay (just wait for a given number of microseconds)
+- GPIO (set to 0 or 1)
+- regulator (enable or disable)
+- PWM (enable or disable)
+
+When a power sequence is run, its steps is executed one after the other until
+one step fails or the end of the sequence is reached.
+
+Power sequences are named, and grouped into "sets" which contain all the
+sequences of a device as well as the resources they use.
+
+Power sequences can be declared as platform data or in the device tree.
+
+Platform Data Format
+--------------------
+All relevant data structures for declaring power sequences are located in
+include/linux/power_seq.h.
+
+The platform data for a device may include an instance of platform_power_seq_set
+which references all the power sequences used for a device. The power sequences
+reference resources in their steps, and setup the union member that corresponds
+to the resource's type. Resources, similarly, have a union which relevant member
+depends on their type.
+
+Note that the only "platform data" per se here is platform_power_seq_set. Other
+structures (power_seq and power_seq_resource) will be used at runtime and thus
+*must* survive initialization, so do not declare them with the __initdata
+attribute.
+
+The following example should make it clear how the platform data for power
+sequences is defined. It declares two power sequences named "power-on" and
+"power-off" for a backlight device. The "power-on" sequence enables the "power"
+regulator of the device, waits for 10ms, and then enables PWM "backlight" and
+set GPIO 28 to 1. "power-off" does the opposite.

+
+Device Tree
+-----------
+Power sequences can also be encoded as device tree nodes. The following
+properties and nodes are equivalent to the platform data defined previously:
+
+pwms = <&pwm 2 5000000>;
+pwm-names = "backlight";
+power-supply = <&vdd_bl_reg>;
+
+power-sequences {
+	power-on {
+		step0 {
+			type = "regulator";
+			id = "power";
+			enable;
+		};
+		step1 {
+			type = "delay";
+			delay = <10000>;
+		};
+		step2 {
+			type = "pwm";
+			id = "backlight";
+			enable;
+		};
+		step3 {
+			type = "gpio";
+			gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+			value = <1>;
+		};
+	};
+
+	power-off {
+		step0 {
+			type = "gpio";
+			gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+			value = <0>;
+		};
+		step1 {
+			type = "pwm";
+			id = "backlight";
+			disable;
+		};
+		step2 {
+			type = "delay";
+			delay = <10000>;
+		};
+		step3 {
+			type = "regulator";
+			id = "power";
+			disable;
+		};
+	};
+};
+
+See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_seq.txt for the complete
+syntax of the DT bindings.
+
+Use by Drivers and Resources Management
+---------------------------------------
+Power sequences make use of resources that must be properly allocated and
+managed. The power_seq_set structure manages the sequences and resources for a
+particular device. A driver willing to use power sequences will thus declare one
+instance of power_seq_set per device and initialize it at probe time:
+
+struct my_device_data {
+	struct device *dev;
+	...
+	struct power_set_set power_seqs;
+	...
+};
+
+power_seq_set_init(&my_device->power_seqs, my_device->dev);
+
+The power_seq_set_add_sequence() and power_seq_set_add_sequences() functions are
+then used to add one or several sequences to a set. These functions will also
+allocate all the resources used by the sequence(s) and make sure they are ready
+to be run. All resources are allocated through devm and will thus be freed when
+the set's device is removed.
+
+  int power_seq_set_add_sequence(struct power_seq_set *set,
+			         struct power_seq *seq);
+  int power_seq_set_add_sequences(struct power_seq_set *set,
+				  struct platform_power_seq_set *seqs);
+
+Power sequences added to a set can then be resolved by their name using
+power_seq_lookup():
+
+  struct power_seq *power_seq_lookup(struct power_seq_set *seqs,
+				     const char *id);
+
+power_seq_lookup() returns a ready-to-run pointer to the power sequence which
+name matches the id parameter.
+
+A retrieved power sequence can then be executed by power_seq_run:
+
+  int power_seq_run(struct power_seq *seq);
+
+It returns 0 if the sequence has successfully been run, or an error code if a
+problem occurred.
+
+Sometimes, you may want to browse the list of resources allocated for the
+sequences of a device, for instance to ensure that a resource of a given type is
+present. The power_seq_for_each_resource() macro does this:
+
+  power_seq_for_each_resource(pos, seqs)
+
+Here "pos" will be a pointer to a struct power_seq_resource. This structure
+contains the type of the resource, the information used for identifying it, and
+the resolved resource itself.
+
+Finally, users of the device tree can obtain a platform_power_seq_set structure
+built from the device's node using devm_of_parse_power_seq_set:
+
+  struct platform_power_seq_set *devm_of_parse_power_seq_set(struct device *dev);
+
+The power sequences must be declared under a "power-sequences" node directly
+declared under the device's node. Detailed syntax contained in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_seq.txt. As the function name
+states, all memory is allocated through devm. The returned
+platform_power_seq_set can be freed after being added to a set, but the
+sequences themselves must be preserved until they are freed by devm.

Some device drivers (e.g. panel backlights ) need to follow precise
sequences for powering on and off, involving GPIOs, regulators, PWMs
with a precise powering order and delays to respect between each steps.
These sequences are device-specific, and do not belong to a particular
driver - therefore they have been performed by board-specific hook
functions to far.

With the advent of the device tree and of ARM kernels that are not
board-tied, we cannot rely on these board-specific hooks anymore but
need a way to implement these sequences in a portable manner. This patch
introduces a simple interpreter that can execute such power sequences
encoded either as platform data or within the device tree.

+Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences
+=================+
+Power sequences are sequential descriptions of actions to be performed on
+power-related resources. Having these descriptions in a well-defined data format
+allows us to take much of the board- or device- specific power control code out
+of the kernel and place it into the device tree instead, making kernels less
+board-dependant.
+
+A device typically makes use of multiple power sequences, for different purposes
+such as powering on and off. All the power sequences of a given device are
+grouped into a set. In the device tree, this set is a sub-node of the device
+node named "power-sequences".
+
+Power Sequences Structure
+-------------------------
+Every device that makes use of power sequences must have a "power-sequences"
+node into which individual power sequences are declared as sub-nodes. The name
+of the node becomes the name of the sequence within the power sequences
+framework.
+
+Similarly, each power sequence declares its steps as sub-nodes of itself. Steps
+must be named sequentially, with the first step named step0, the second step1,
+etc. Failure to follow this rule will result in a parsing error.
+
+Power Sequences Steps
+---------------------
+Steps of a sequence describe an action to be performed on a resource. They
+always include a "type" property which indicates what kind of resource this
+step works on. Depending on the resource type, additional properties are defined
+to control the action to be performed.
+
+"delay" type required properties:
+  - delay: delay to wait (in microseconds)
+
+"regulator" type required properties:
+  - id: name of the regulator to use.
+  - enable / disable: one of these two empty properties must be present to
+                      enable or disable the resource
+
+"pwm" type required properties:
+  - id: name of the PWM to use.
+  - enable / disable: one of these two empty properties must be present to
+                      enable or disable the resource
+
+"gpio" type required properties:
+  - gpio: phandle of the GPIO to use.
+  - value: value this GPIO should take. Must be 0 or 1.
+
+Example
+-------
+Here are example sequences declared within a backlight device that use all the
+supported resources types:
+
+	backlight {
+		compatible = "pwm-backlight";
+		...
+
+		/* resources used by the power sequences */
+		pwms = <&pwm 2 5000000>;
+		pwm-names = "backlight";
+		power-supply = <&backlight_reg>;
+
+		power-sequences {
+			power-on {
+				step0 {
+					type = "regulator";
+					id = "power";
+					enable;
+				};
+				step1 {
+					type = "delay";
+					delay = <10000>;
+				};
+				step2 {
+					type = "pwm";
+					id = "backlight";
+					enable;
+				};
+				step3 {
+					type = "gpio";
+					gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+					value = <1>;
+				};
+			};
+
+			power-off {
+				step0 {
+					type = "gpio";
+					gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+					value = <0>;
+				};
+				step1 {
+					type = "pwm";
+					id = "backlight";
+					disable;
+				};
+				step2 {
+					type = "delay";
+					delay = <10000>;
+				};
+				step3 {
+					type = "regulator";
+					id = "power";
+					disable;
+				};
+			};
+		};
+	};
+
+The first part lists the PWM and regulator resources used by the sequences.
+These resources will be requested on behalf of the backlight device when the
+sequences are built and are declared according to their own bindings (for
+instance, regulators and pwms are resolved by name - note though that name
+declaration is done differently by the two frameworks).
+
+After the resources declaration, two sequences follow for powering the backlight
+on and off. Their names are specified by the pwm-backlight device bindings. Once
+the sequences are built by calling devm_of_parse_power_seq_set() on the
+backlight device, they can be added to a set using
+power_seq_set_add_sequences().

+Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences
+=================+
+Problem
+-------
+Very commonly, boards need the help of out-of-driver code to turn some of their
+devices on and off. For instance, SoC boards might use a GPIO (abstracted to a
+regulator or not) to control the power supply of a backlight. The GPIO that
+should be used, however, as well as the exact power sequence that may also
+involve other resources, is board-dependent and thus unknown to the driver.
+
+This was previously addressed by having hooks in the device's platform data that
+are called whenever the state of the device might need a power status change.
+This approach, however, introduces board-dependant code into the kernel and is
+not compatible with the device tree.
+
+The Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences (or power sequences for short) aim at
+turning this code into platform data or device tree nodes. Power sequences are
+described using a simple format and run by a lightweight interpreter whenever
+needed. This allows device drivers to work without power callbacks and makes the
+kernel less board-dependant.
+
+What are Power Sequences?
+-------------------------
+A power sequence is an array of sequential steps describing an action to be
+performed on a resource. The supported resources and actions operations are:
+- delay (just wait for a given number of microseconds)
+- GPIO (set to 0 or 1)
+- regulator (enable or disable)
+- PWM (enable or disable)
+
+When a power sequence is run, its steps is executed one after the other until
+one step fails or the end of the sequence is reached.
+
+Power sequences are named, and grouped into "sets" which contain all the
+sequences of a device as well as the resources they use.
+
+Power sequences can be declared as platform data or in the device tree.
+
+Platform Data Format
+--------------------
+All relevant data structures for declaring power sequences are located in
+include/linux/power_seq.h.
+
+The platform data for a device may include an instance of platform_power_seq_set
+which references all the power sequences used for a device. The power sequences
+reference resources in their steps, and setup the union member that corresponds
+to the resource's type. Resources, similarly, have a union which relevant member
+depends on their type.
+
+Note that the only "platform data" per se here is platform_power_seq_set. Other
+structures (power_seq and power_seq_resource) will be used at runtime and thus
+*must* survive initialization, so do not declare them with the __initdata
+attribute.
+
+The following example should make it clear how the platform data for power
+sequences is defined. It declares two power sequences named "power-on" and
+"power-off" for a backlight device. The "power-on" sequence enables the "power"
+regulator of the device, waits for 10ms, and then enables PWM "backlight" and
+set GPIO 28 to 1. "power-off" does the opposite.

+Device Tree
+-----------
+Power sequences can also be encoded as device tree nodes. The following
+properties and nodes are equivalent to the platform data defined previously:
+
+pwms = <&pwm 2 5000000>;
+pwm-names = "backlight";
+power-supply = <&vdd_bl_reg>;
+
+power-sequences {
+	power-on {
+		step0 {
+			type = "regulator";
+			id = "power";
+			enable;
+		};
+		step1 {
+			type = "delay";
+			delay = <10000>;
+		};
+		step2 {
+			type = "pwm";
+			id = "backlight";
+			enable;
+		};
+		step3 {
+			type = "gpio";
+			gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+			value = <1>;
+		};
+	};
+
+	power-off {
+		step0 {
+			type = "gpio";
+			gpio = <&gpio 28 0>;
+			value = <0>;
+		};
+		step1 {
+			type = "pwm";
+			id = "backlight";
+			disable;
+		};
+		step2 {
+			type = "delay";
+			delay = <10000>;
+		};
+		step3 {
+			type = "regulator";
+			id = "power";
+			disable;
+		};
+	};
+};
+
+See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_seq.txt for the complete
+syntax of the DT bindings.
+
+Use by Drivers and Resources Management
+---------------------------------------
+Power sequences make use of resources that must be properly allocated and
+managed. The power_seq_set structure manages the sequences and resources for a
+particular device. A driver willing to use power sequences will thus declare one
+instance of power_seq_set per device and initialize it at probe time:
+
+struct my_device_data {
+	struct device *dev;
+	...
+	struct power_set_set power_seqs;
+	...
+};
+
+power_seq_set_init(&my_device->power_seqs, my_device->dev);
+
+The power_seq_set_add_sequence() and power_seq_set_add_sequences() functions are
+then used to add one or several sequences to a set. These functions will also
+allocate all the resources used by the sequence(s) and make sure they are ready
+to be run. All resources are allocated through devm and will thus be freed when
+the set's device is removed.
+
+  int power_seq_set_add_sequence(struct power_seq_set *set,
+			         struct power_seq *seq);
+  int power_seq_set_add_sequences(struct power_seq_set *set,
+				  struct platform_power_seq_set *seqs);
+
+Power sequences added to a set can then be resolved by their name using
+power_seq_lookup():
+
+  struct power_seq *power_seq_lookup(struct power_seq_set *seqs,
+				     const char *id);
+
+power_seq_lookup() returns a ready-to-run pointer to the power sequence which
+name matches the id parameter.
+
+A retrieved power sequence can then be executed by power_seq_run:
+
+  int power_seq_run(struct power_seq *seq);
+
+It returns 0 if the sequence has successfully been run, or an error code if a
+problem occurred.
+
+Sometimes, you may want to browse the list of resources allocated for the
+sequences of a device, for instance to ensure that a resource of a given type is
+present. The power_seq_for_each_resource() macro does this:
+
+  power_seq_for_each_resource(pos, seqs)
+
+Here "pos" will be a pointer to a struct power_seq_resource. This structure
+contains the type of the resource, the information used for identifying it, and
+the resolved resource itself.
+
+Finally, users of the device tree can obtain a platform_power_seq_set structure
+built from the device's node using devm_of_parse_power_seq_set:
+
+  struct platform_power_seq_set *devm_of_parse_power_seq_set(struct device *dev);
+
+The power sequences must be declared under a "power-sequences" node directly
+declared under the device's node. Detailed syntax contained in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_seq.txt. As the function name
+states, all memory is allocated through devm. The returned
+platform_power_seq_set can be freed after being added to a set, but the
+sequences themselves must be preserved until they are freed by devm.

 Optional properties:
   - pwm-names: a list of names for the PWM devices specified in the
                "pwms" property (see PWM binding[0])
+  - low-threshold-brightness: brightness threshold low level. Sets the lowest
+    brightness value.
+    On some panels the backlight misbehaves if the duty cycle percentage of the
+    PWM wave is less than a certain level (say 20%).  In this example the user
+    can set low-threshold-brightness to a value above 50 (ie, 20% of 255), thus
+    preventing the PWM duty cycle from going too low.
+    On setting low-threshold-brightness the range of brightness levels is
+    calculated in the range low-threshold-brightness to the maximum value in
+    brightness-levels, described above.
+  - pwm-names: name for the PWM device specified in the "pwms" property (see PWM
+    binding[0]). Necessary if power sequences are used
+  - power-sequences: Power sequences (see Power sequences[1]) used to bring the
+    backlight on and off. If this property is present, then two power
+    sequences named "power-on" and "power-off" must be defined to control how
+    the backlight is to be powered on and off. These sequences must reference
+    the PWM specified in the pwms property by its name, and can also reference
+    other resources supported by the power sequences mechanism

 Optional properties:
   - pwm-names: a list of names for the PWM devices specified in the
                "pwms" property (see PWM binding[0])
+  - low-threshold-brightness: brightness threshold low level. Sets the lowest
+    brightness value.
+    On some panels the backlight misbehaves if the duty cycle percentage of the
+    PWM wave is less than a certain level (say 20%).  In this example the user
+    can set low-threshold-brightness to a value above 50 (ie, 20% of 255), thus
+    preventing the PWM duty cycle from going too low.
+    On setting low-threshold-brightness the range of brightness levels is
+    calculated in the range low-threshold-brightness to the maximum value in
+    brightness-levels, described above.
+  - pwm-names: name for the PWM device specified in the "pwms" property (see PWM
+    binding[0]). Necessary if power sequences are used
+  - power-sequences: Power sequences (see Power sequences[1]) used to bring the
+    backlight on and off. If this property is present, then two power
+    sequences named "power-on" and "power-off" must be defined to control how
+    the backlight is to be powered on and off. These sequences must reference
+    the PWM specified in the pwms property by its name, and can also reference
+    other resources supported by the power sequences mechanism

+    brightness value.
+    On some panels the backlight misbehaves if the duty cycle percentage of the
+    PWM wave is less than a certain level (say 20%).  In this example the user
+    can set low-threshold-brightness to a value above 50 (ie, 20% of 255), thus
+    preventing the PWM duty cycle from going too low.
+    On setting low-threshold-brightness the range of brightness levels is
+    calculated in the range low-threshold-brightness to the maximum value in
+    brightness-levels, described above.
+  - pwm-names: name for the PWM device specified in the "pwms" property (see PWM
+    binding[0]). Necessary if power sequences are used
+  - power-sequences: Power sequences (see Power sequences[1]) used to bring the
+    backlight on and off. If this property is present, then two power
+    sequences named "power-on" and "power-off" must be defined to control how
+    the backlight is to be powered on and off. These sequences must reference
+    the PWM specified in the pwms property by its name, and can also reference
+    other resources supported by the power sequences mechanism
