Merge tag 'omap-for-v5.6/droid4-lcd-fix-signed' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap into arm/fixes Fix LCD backlight issue for droid4 There was a bit of an integration glitch with the LED backlight series. The LED related parts got merged into v5.6-rc1, but the actual backlight driver got left out. This caused an issue on at least droid4 where the LCD backlight can not yet be enabled automatically. And the LCD backlight can no longer be enabled manually either via sysfs. The integration glitch happened because some pending comments from me. There was some confusion on which device tree property we should use for the default brightness property. After discussing how to fix this on the mailing lists, we came to the conclusion that it's best to fix this issue properly by adding the missing driver. The other solutions would mean backpedaling and try to come up with some temporary solution that really does not solve the issue for users. The patch for led_bl.c has been around for quite a while and tested by many users and was assumed to be merged as part of the LED backlight series. For the brightness property to use, we ended up using the more common "default-brightness-level" rather than "default-brightness" used by some backlight drivers. * tag 'omap-for-v5.6/droid4-lcd-fix-signed' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap: ARM: dts: droid4: Configure LED backlight for lm3532 backlight: add led-backlight driver Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/pull-1582303901-96693@atomide.comSigned-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>
