Subject: [PATCH v2 15/22] backlight: Probe backlight devices on demand
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2015 13:19:46 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438089593-7696-16-git-send-email-tomeu.vizoso@collabora.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1438089593-7696-1-git-send-email-tomeu.vizoso@collabora.com>

When looking up a backlight device through its firmware node, probe it
if it hasn't already.

The goal is to reduce deferred probes to a minimum, as it makes it very
cumbersome to find out why a device failed to probe, and can introduce
very big delays in when a critical device is probed.
