Based on this, could we disable it initially and update in the
backlight_update_status function?

Like this,

if (pb->enable_gpio) {
if (phandle &&
gpiod_get_direction(pb->enable_gpio) == GPIOF_DIR_OUT &&
gpiod_get_value(pb->enable_gpio) == 1)
gpiod_direction_output(pb->enable_gpio, 1);
else
gpiod_direction_output(pb->enable_gpio, 0);
}

And then update with props.brightness in backlight_update_status.
I am not sure, maybe I miss something.

Regards,
YH Huang
