MediaTek MT6370 is a SubPMIC consisting of a single cell battery charger
with ADC monitoring, RGB LEDs, dual channel flashlight, WLED backlight
driver, display bias voltage supply, one general purpose LDO, and the
USB Type-C &amp; PD controller complies with the latest USB Type-C and PD
standards.

Add support for the MediaTek MT6370 backlight driver.
It controls 4 channels of 8 series WLEDs in
2048 (only for MT6370/MT6371) / 16384 (only for MT6372)
current steps (30 mA) in exponential or linear mapping curves.

<title>backlight: Add Kinetic KTD253 backlight driver</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5317f37e48b953be94bfdbb6474542363467c37e</id>
<content type='text'>
The Kinetic KTD253 backlight driver is controlled with a
single GPIO line, but still supports a range of brightness
settings by sending fast pulses on the line.

This is based off the source code release for the Samsung
GT-S7710 mobile phone.

<id>urn:sha1:7ecdea4a0226f6c5cd0e86859d1b38cf17bc8529</id>
<content type='text'>
The backlight_bl driver required initialization using
struct generic_bl_info. As there are no more references
to this struct there is no users left.
So it is safe to delete the driver.

<content type='text'>
This driver has no in-kernel users. The device can only be populated
by board files since it does not support device tree nor ACPI,
and nothing in the kernel creates a device named "ot200-backlight".

This driver has been in the kernel since 2012. If it is used by
out-of-tree code that code should have been upstreamed by now,
it's been 8 years.

It uses the idiomatic forked GPIO of the CS5535 which combines
pin control and GPIO into its private custom interface, which
causes me a headache because that is not how we do things these
days: we creates separate pin control and GPIO drivers.

Delete this unused driver.

This patch adds a led-backlight driver (led_bl), which is similar to
pwm_bl except the driver uses a LED class driver to adjust the
brightness in the HW. Multiple LEDs can be used for a single backlight.

from ORISE Technology. This device can drive TFT LC panels having a
resolution of 240x320 pixels. After initializing the OTM3225A using
it's SPI interface it switches to use 16-bib RGB as external
display interface.
