I received some feedback regarding shmobile conflicts when arm-soc was merged between v3.11 and v3.12-rc1. With this in mind I now have a strong preference for changes inside arch/arm/mach-shmobile/ to be taken through my renesas tree and thus more importantly through arm-soc if possible. > Thierry > > Thierry Reding (10): > pwm-backlight: Refactor backlight power on/off > pwm-backlight: Add optional enable GPIO > ARM: OMAP: Initialize PWM backlight enable_gpio field > ARM: pxa: Initialize PWM backlight enable_gpio field > ARM: SAMSUNG: Initialize PWM backlight enable_gpio field > ARM: shmobile: Initialize PWM backlight enable_gpio field > unicore32: Initialize PWM backlight enable_gpio field > pwm-backlight: Use new enable_gpio field > pwm-backlight: Use an optional power supply > pwm-backlight: Allow backlight to remain disabled on boot > > .../bindings/video/backlight/pwm-backlight.txt | 6 + > arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-zoom-peripherals.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/cm-x300.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/colibri-pxa270-income.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/ezx.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/hx4700.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/lpd270.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/magician.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/mainstone.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/mioa701.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/palm27x.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/palmtc.c | 35 +---- > arch/arm/mach-pxa/palmte2.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/pcm990-baseboard.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/raumfeld.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/tavorevb.c | 2 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/viper.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/z2.c | 2 + > arch/arm/mach-pxa/zylonite.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/mach-h1940.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/mach-rx1950.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/mach-crag6410.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/mach-hmt.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/mach-smartq.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/mach-smdk6410.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s5p64x0/mach-smdk6440.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s5p64x0/mach-smdk6450.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s5pc100/mach-smdkc100.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-s5pv210/mach-smdkv210.c | 1 + > arch/arm/mach-shmobile/board-armadillo800eva.c | 1 + > arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-backlight.c | 5 + > arch/unicore32/kernel/puv3-nb0916.c | 1 + > drivers/video/backlight/pwm_bl.c | 142 ++++++++++++++++----- > include/linux/pwm_backlight.h | 7 + > 34 files changed, 162 insertions(+), 64 deletions(-) > > -- > 1.8.4 > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sh" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
