Cover letter [RFC 0/4] gpio-backlight: remove platform data support
Hi,
This series attempts to remove platform data support from gpio_blackllist driver and switch it over to generic device properties/GPIO tables. The only user of platform data was SuperH Ecovec24 board; please take a look at patch #2 that tries to only register backlight when the board is using LDC and not DVI.
Please note that I do not have the hardware (do we even care about ecovec24? I'd like to rip out platform data support from tsc2007 as well, but ecovec24 is using custom pendown handler and GPIOs have to be switched off from interrupt mode to GPIO and back in that pendown handler, which is all quite messy. If we do not care about this board I'd much rather removed that custom pendown).
Thanks!
