I'll come up with a patch to fix this, since I originally wrote of_find_backlight_by_node(). Running the randconfig that you provided yielded some other interesting warnings, though. There are a few occurrences where gcc compiles about functions not returning a value, which is caused by people assuming that BUG() never returns. But it happens that your randconfig also unsets CONFIG_BUG, which turns BUG into a no-op and therefore causing gcc to rightfully complain. Before attempting to fix these, I was wondering whether that would be considered useful. I personally think that we should eliminate warnings as much as possible because it helps filtering out genuine problems. But the BUG Kconfig option also depends on EXPERT, so I guess it's usually not even visible and possibly not worth bothering about. Thierry
