linux-stable.git/drivers/video/backlight, branch v3.6.2

Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)

2012-07-31T00:25:34+00:00

Merge Andrew's first set of patches:
 "Non-MM patches:

   - lots of misc bits

   - tree-wide have_clk() cleanups

   - quite a lot of printk tweaks.  I draw your attention to "printk:
     convert the format for KERN_ to a 2 byte pattern" which
     looks a bit scary.  But afaict it's solid.

   - backlight updates

   - lib/ feature work (notably the addition and use of memweight())

   - checkpatch updates

   - rtc updates

   - nilfs updates

   - fatfs updates (partial, still waiting for acks)

   - kdump, proc, fork, IPC, sysctl, taskstats, pps, etc

   - new fault-injection feature work"

backlight: move lp855x header into platform_data directory

2012-07-31T00:25:15+00:00

The lp855x header is used only in the platform side, so it can be moved
into platform_data directory

backlight: move register definitions from header to source

2012-07-31T00:25:15+00:00

ROM boundary definitions do not need to be exported because these are
used only internally in the lp855x driver.

And few code cosmetic changes

backlight: l4f00242t03: export and use devm_gpio_request_one()

2012-07-31T00:25:15+00:00

The devm_ functions allocate memory that is released when a driver
detaches.  This patch uses devm_gpio_request_one() for these functions.
