[PATCH 2/3] dt-bindings: backlight: lm3630a: add entries to control boost frequency
Posted by Maximilian Weigand 2 years, 8 months ago 
From: Maximilian Weigand <mweigand@mweigand.net>

Add 'ti,boost_use_1mhz' to switch between 500 kHz and 1 MHz boost
converter switching frequency, and add 'ti,boost_frequency_shift' to
activate a frequency shift to 560 kHz or 1.12 MHz, respectively.

No underscores in property names.

Do not need '|' unless you need to preserve formatting.

So just make it a property choosing the frequency, not bools, with
proper unit suffix.

i.e.
ti,boost-frequency-hz = <x>;
with x being 500000, 560000, 1000000, 1120000

with the driver failing when the frequency is not achievable
with the two knobs of 1mhz and shift.

Yeah, with a default value (500000, I guess).

Thanks for the feedback, this is quite obviously the better solution! I
will rework the submission accordingly.
