Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] dt-bindings: leds: document the "power-supply" property
Date: Mon, 15 Jul 2019 17:56:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190715155657.22976-2-jjhiblot@ti.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190715155657.22976-1-jjhiblot@ti.com>

Most of the LEDs are powered by a voltage/current regulator. Describing it
in the device-tree makes it possible for the LED core to enable/disable it
when needed.
