The driver reads four tuning properties without the unit suffixes that
the binding mandates: "awinic,sw-freq" instead of "awinic,sw-freq-hz",
"awinic,sw-ilmt" instead of "awinic,sw-ilmt-microamp", "awinic,iled-max"
instead of "awinic,iled-max-microamp", and "awinic,uvlo-thres" instead
of "awinic,uvlo-thres-microvolt".
As a result, device_property_read_u32() never finds these properties in
a binding-conformant device tree and silently falls back to the compiled-in
defaults for switching frequency, switching current limit, max LED current,
and UVLO threshold.
Fix by aligning the property name strings in aw99706_dt_props[] with the
binding. No value/range changes are needed since both sides already use
the same units and enumerations.

The lookup helpers for dim-mode and ramp-ctl take a shortcut when
lookup_tbl is NULL: they accept any u32 value without range-checking
and return success unconditionally. Out-of-range values get silently
truncated by regmap_update_bits instead of triggering the dev_warn +
default-fallback path that the other properties use.
Add a field-width check for the NULL-table case so that values
exceeding the register field maximum are rejected the same way a
table-lookup miss is.
While here, also switch the error returns to -EINVAL for consistency.

backlight: aw99706: Fix DT property names to match binding
The driver reads four tuning properties without the unit suffixes that
the binding mandates. As a result, device_property_read_u32() never finds
these properties in a binding-conformant device tree and silently falls back
to the compiled-in defaults. This patch fixes the property name strings in
aw99706_dt_props[] to match the binding.

This is a pre-existing issue, but I noticed something concerning in the
initialization sequence within aw99706_probe() in the same file:
drivers/video/backlight/aw99706.c:aw99706_probe() {
...
ret = aw99706_chip_id_read(aw);
if (ret != AW99706_ID)
return dev_err_probe(dev, -ENODEV,
"Unknown chip id 0x%02x\n", ret);
aw99706_dt_parse(aw, &props);
aw->hwen_gpio = devm_gpiod_get(aw->dev, "enable", GPIOD_OUT_LOW);
if (IS_ERR(aw->hwen_gpio))
return dev_err_probe(dev, PTR_ERR(aw->hwen_gpio),
"Failed to get enable gpio\n");
ret = aw99706_hw_init(aw);
...
}
[Severity: High]
Does this sequence result in unconditional probe failure on platforms where the
bootloader does not pre-enable the backlight hardware?
The driver attempts to communicate with the chip via I2C during
aw99706_chip_id_read() before the hardware enable GPIO is acquired and
asserted in aw99706_hw_init().
Because the hardware is likely powered down when aw99706_chip_id_read() is
called, it will not acknowledge the I2C transaction and will return an error.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but while reviewing this driver I noticed
a potential issue in aw99706_probe(). Does the driver attempt to read
the chip ID before enabling the device?
drivers/video/backlight/aw99706.c:aw99706_probe() {
...
ret = aw99706_chip_id_read(aw);
if (ret != AW99706_ID)
return dev_err_probe(dev, -ENODEV,
"Unknown chip id 0x%02x\n", ret);
aw99706_dt_parse(aw, &props);
aw->hwen_gpio = devm_gpiod_get(aw->dev, "enable", GPIOD_OUT_LOW);
...
}
If the bootloader leaves the chip disabled, would this I2C read fail or time
out because the enable GPIO is not fetched and asserted until later in the
probe sequence?
