Hi Sam,

Thank you for the patch.

I'd write

	if (panel->funcs && panel->funcs->enable) {
		ret = panel->funcs->enable(panel);
		if (ret < 0)
			return ret;
	}

and then handle the backlight with one less indentation level.

What is backlight_enable() returns an error ? Should we at least log
that ?

How about

"will call this function at probe time. Backlight will then be handled
transparently without requiring any intervention from the driver at
runtime."

s/before call/before the call/

or maybe simpler


s/before call to disable()/before disable()/

(and 'after enable()' above in that case).

Should you mention that this field shall not be set directly by drivers,
but is set by drm_panel_of_backlight() instead ?

You can also reflow the text to reach the 80 columns limit :-)

Shouldn't you return 0 instead ? Otherwise panel driver that can support
backlight will all fail to probe if CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE is
disabled.
