This patch refactors the dt parsing code to avoid setting platform_data,
instead just setting lp->pdata directly. This facilitates easier
probe deferral since the current scheme would require us to clear out
dev->platform_data before deferring.

powering on/off the 3V rail attached to the controller.

While your two patches are both correct (and applied already), I took
a look at the platform_data header and noticed that all users of this
file have been converted to DT a while ago, so it would be nice to clean
it up by integrating the linux/platform_data/lp855x.h header file into the
drivers/video/backlight/lp855x_bl.c itself.
You can then merge struct lp855x_platform_data into lp855x to avoid the
extra dynamic allocation and remove all the 'pdata' references in the
driver.

Hi Arnd,
Thanks for the suggestion. Indeed, that will be much cleaner, I'll
send a follow-up patch.

Hi Arnd,
Good to talk to you again. It's been a long time since I met you in
Linaro Connect HK few years ago :)

I like this cleanup but need to consider few things.
- Platform which does not support the DT
In this case, there is no way to configure options like backlight device
control mode. Without the DT, only default options are set.
To change the settings, the driver modification is required.
I don't want to write project/platform dependency code inside the driver.
- Backward compatibility
Some customers have been using this platform data in their board-*.c
(but this *.c has not been mainlined yet).
My concern is the backward compatibility issue may happen in their projects.
Best regards,
Milo

I understand this situation. In the case of Exynos DisplayPort driver,
a similar issue happened. At that time, the conclusion was that
out-of-tree code (not mainlined yet) cannot be considered.
In this context, it is valuable to upstream the code to mainline kernel.
I think that one of the followings can be considered.
1. Ask customers to upstream their machine code
2. Ask customers to use DT
If they don't want to these things, someone (you or customers)
will need to make the patch for non-DT support, whenever new
kernel is released and is used by projects not supporting DT.

Right. Basically when the only reason to have code in the kernel is
to support someone with an out-of-tree patch set, they can be expected
to add the extra bit to their patch set, it doesn't add any extra burden
to them, and it makes our lives easier.
