The backlight drivers uses several different patterns when registering a backlight: - Register backlight and assign properties later - Define a local backlight_properties variable and use memset - Define a const backlight_properties and assign relevant properties On top of this there was differences in what members was assigned in backlight_properties. To align how backlight drivers are initialized introduce following helper macros: - DECLARE_BACKLIGHT_INIT_FIRMWARE() - DECLARE_BACKLIGHT_INIT_PLATFORM() - DECLARE_BACKLIGHT_INIT_RAW() The macros are introduced in patch 2. The backlight drivers used direct access to backlight_properties. Encapsulate these in get/set access operations resulting in following benefits: - The drivers no longer need to be concerned about the confusing power states, as there is now only a set_power_on() and set_power_off() operation. - The access methods can be called with a NULL pointer so logic around the access can be made simpler. - The code is in most cases more readable with the access operations. - When everyone uses the access methods refactroring in the backlight core is simpler. The get/set operations are introduced in patch 3. The first patch trims backlight_update_status() so it can be called with a NULL backlight_device. Then the called do not need to add this check just to avoid a NULL reference. The fourth patch introduce the new macros and get/set operations for the gpio backlight driver, as an example. The remaining patches updates most backlight users in drivers/gpu/drm/* With this patch set applied then: - Almost all references to FB_BLANK* are gone from drm/* - All panel drivers uses devm_ variant for registering backlight - Almost all direct references to backlight properties are gone The drm/* patches are used as examples how drivers can benefit from the new macros and get/set operations. Individual patches are only sent to the people listed in the patch + a few more. Please check https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/ for the full series. Feedback welcome!
