From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@xxxxxxxxxxxx> While working on my other series related to gpio-backlight[1] I noticed that we could simplify the driver if we made the only user of platform data use GPIO lookups and device properties. This series tries to do that. First two patches contain minor fixes. Third patch makes the driver explicitly drive the GPIO line. Fourth patch adds all necessary data structures to ecovec24. Patch 5/9 unifies much of the code for both pdata and non-pdata cases. Patches 6-7/9 remove unused platform data fields. Last two patches contain additional improvements for the GPIO backlight driver while we're already modifying it. I don't have access to this HW but hopefully this works. Only compile tested.
