[PATCH v1 0/2] backlight: gpio-backlight: Add support for multiple GPIOs
Posted by Sudarshan Shetty 1 month ago
Hi all,

This patch extends the gpio-backlight driver and its Device Tree 
bindings to support multiple GPIOs for controlling a single
backlight device.

Some panels require more than one GPIO to enable or disable the
backlight, and previously the driver only supported a single GPIO. 
With this change:
 - The driver now handles an array of GPIOs and updates all of them 
   based on brightness state.
 - The Device Tree binding has been updated to allow specifying 1 or 2 
   GPIOs for a backlight node.

This approach avoids describing multiple backlight devices in DT for a 
single panel. 

Thanks,
Anusha
