Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Add a generic driver for LED-based backlight
Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2019 17:14:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190701151423.30768-1-jjhiblot@ti.com> (raw)

This series aims to add a led-backlight driver, similar to pwm-backlight,
but using a LED class device underneath.

A few years ago (2015), Tomi Valkeinen posted a series implementing a
backlight driver on top of a LED device:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7293991/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7294001/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7293981/

The discussion stopped because Tomi lacked the time to work on it.

This series takes it from there and implements the binding that was
discussed in https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7293991/. In this new
binding the backlight device is a child of the LED controller instead of
being another platform device that uses a phandle to reference a LED.

    "compatible" string
