> ChangeLog v10->v11:
Wow, that's a lot of fix-ups.
> - Shrinked the Cc list.
It's okay to have a large CC list, but I'd do it manually rather than
adding a line for each in the commit log. This latter method is good
for one or two extra people you wish to add to an individual patch
when sending a patch-set.
> - Fixed the of_match_table warning.

Why was it unnecessary?
> ChangeLog v8->v9:
> - Added Shawn Guo in the Cc list.
> - The default-brightness-level is now a boolean default-on property,
> the gpio is only touched if the gpio-backlight driver instance probes.
> - The code and documentation was updated accordingly.
>
> ChangeLog v7->v8:
> - The default-state was renamed to default-brightness-level.
> - default-brightness-level is now mandatory, like for backlight-pwm,
> That way we avoid having to handle the case where it's not set,
> which means that we would need not to set the gpio, but still
> report a brightness value for sysfs, when not all gpio controllers are
> able to read the gpio value.
> - switched the default-brightness-level to boolean values (0 or 1) instead
> of using strings ("on", "off", "keep").
> - The documentation was updated accordingly.
> - The example in the documentation now uses the dts gpio defines.
> - The "backlight: gpio_backlight: Use a default state enum." patch was then
> dropped, becuase it is not necessary anymore.
>
> ChangeLog v6->v7:
> - removed a compilation warning with the removal of the useless ret declaration.
>
> ChangeLog v5->v6:
> - The default state handling was reworked:
> - it's now called default-state, and looks like the gpio-leds default-state.
> - it now has a "keep" option, like for the gpio-leds.
> - that "keep" option is the default when the default-state property is not set.
> - The documentation was updated accordingly.
>
> ChangeLog v4->v5:
> - The default-brightness property now defaults to 0 in the driver.
> - def_value int becomes a bool.
> - The check for the gpio validity has been reworked.

These should really be in a seperate patch.

The format of the [0] is confusing and it doesn't really add anything
here. If you wish to reverence an external binding document just write
out the path. Failing that [bindings]/gpio/gpio.txt also works.

There's no need to initialise this.

This will already be NULL, as you used kzalloc().

Why complicate matters?
gbl->def_value = of_property_read_bool(np, "default-on");
> - bl->props.brightness = pdata->def_value;
> + bl->props.brightness = gbl->def_value;
Do you use gbl->def_value again later? If not:
gbl->def_value = = of_property_read_bool(np, "default-on");
