Hello ChiaEn,

I propose to move this one to drivers/leds (or drivers/pwm) and, instead of
registering a backlight device, register a PWM device.

This way you will be able to reuse the generic backlight-pwm driver, as you'd
be feeding the PWM device exposed by this driver to the generic one: this will
most importantly make it easy to chain it with MTK_DISP_PWM (mtk-pwm-disp)
with a devicetree that looks like...

pwmleds-disp {

compatible = "pwm-leds";



disp_led: disp-pwm {

label = "backlight-pwm";

pwms = <&pwm0 0 500000>;

max-brightness = <1024>;

};

};



backlight_lcd0: backlight {

compatible = "led-backlight";

leds = <&disp_led>, <&pmic_bl_led>;



default-brightness-level = <300>;

};

Regards,
Angelo
