I was looking at

drivers/video/fbdev/omap2/omapfb/displays/panel-sony-acx565akm.c
drivers/video/fbdev/omap2/omapfb/displays/panel-dsi-cm.c

which are not using gpiod. Should they be retired?

I missed the drivers in drivers/gpu/... and I see that they essentially
abuse gpiod API as gpiod_set_value() operates on logical level
(active/inactive) and not absolute (high/low). They should either use
the gpiod_*_raw() variants, or they should be adjusted to do the proper
thing together with the accompanying DTS change.

What are your preferences?

Thanks.
