    backlight: Delete the OT200 backlight driver · e994734f
    Linus Walleij authored
    This driver has no in-kernel users. The device can only be populated
    by board files since it does not support device tree nor ACPI,
    and nothing in the kernel creates a device named "ot200-backlight".
    
    This driver has been in the kernel since 2012. If it is used by
    out-of-tree code that code should have been upstreamed by now,
    it's been 8 years.
    
    It uses the idiomatic forked GPIO of the CS5535 which combines
    pin control and GPIO into its private custom interface, which
    causes me a headache because that is not how we do things these
    days: we creates separate pin control and GPIO drivers.
    
    Delete this unused driver.
