Hello all,

This patchset adds the required changes to support an optional backlight
and GPIO for the tilcdc panel driver.

There was some code to support a backlight, but it was somewhat broken
and undocumented. I've followed the nice implementation in panel-simple
and added a similar one here.

The enable GPIO is required to turn on and off devices with such capability.
Also here, I've followed panel-simple which looks correct.

In addition to this there are very minor cosmetic cleanups and a larger
error path fix in tilcdc's DRM driver .load error path.

This patchset applies on top of drm-next branch which contains the latest
tilcdc pushed by Guido.

If at all possible, I'd like to get this merged for v3.17. If a pull request
is needed, don't hesitate to ask and I'll prepare one.

Comments and tests welcome!


All of the changes seem to make sense and I tested on AM335x-EVM both with and without the addition "backlight = " in the dts for the panel node.

I see no issues in either case, continued to work as before.

Tested against 3.16-rc6 with this patchset and the earlier patchset from Guido applied.

Also tested on BeagleBone Black even though it doesn't have a panel, just to make sure nothing changed there.
