This series adds the ability to specify a GPIO and a power supply to enable a backlight. Patch 1 adds some blank lines to make the code look less cluttered in various places. Patch 2 refactors the power on and power off sequences into separate functions in preparation for subsequent patches. Patch 3 adds functionality to track the on/off state of the backlight. This is required by subsequent patches to make sure that enabling and disabling used resources remains balanced. Patch 4 adds an optional GPIO to enable a backlight. This patch only includes the field within the platform data so that it can be properly setup before actually being put to use. Patches 5 to 9 convert all users of the pwm-backlight driver to use the new field. For most of them, this just initializes the field to -1, marking the field as unused. Patch 10 uses the new field within the pwm-backlight driver and at the same time allows it to be parsed from device tree. Patch 11 implements support for an optional power supply. This relies on the regulator core to return a dummy regulator when no supply has been otherwise setup so the driver doesn't have to handle that specially nor require all users to be updated. Patch 12 adds a way to keep a backlight turned off at boot. This is useful when hooking up a backlight with a subsystem such as DRM which has more explicit semantics as to when a backlight should be turned on. Due to the dependencies within the series, I propose to take all these patches through the PWM tree, so I'll need acks from OMAP, PXA, Samsung, shmobile and Unicore32 maintainers.
