From 3698d7e7d221a5c90d4b55e96d0c8f98a8b4d7df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Philipp Zabel Date: Wed, 18 Nov 2015 18:12:25 +0100 Subject: backlight: pwm_bl: Avoid backlight flicker when probed from DT If the driver is probed from the device tree, and there is a phandle property set on it, and the enable GPIO is already configured as output, and the backlight is currently disabled, keep it disabled. If all these conditions are met, assume there will be some other driver that can enable the backlight at the appropriate time.
