Hi Vikas Sajian,

I agree with Tomasz Figa's opinion.
Backlight/LCD framework should be used.
eDP panel backlight on SMDK5210 board can be controlled by PWM;
thus, pwm-backlight driver should be used.
Also, eDP panel reset pin should be controlled by using
platform-lcd driver.

Also, I have been doing backlight reviews instead of Richard,
please do CC'ing me.

Best regards,

This patch series adds LCD backlight and LCD enable gpios pins to dp-controller
DT node of exynos5250-smdk5250 and parsing of these gpio pins in exynos-dp driver

tested on exynos5250-smdk5250 Board.

rebased on kgene-next branch of 
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/kgene/linux-samsung.git/
