I came across some links for adding DT support to platform-lcd driver
posted by Thomas Abraham.
And because of some reasons it was not accepted.
Here is the link for the discussion happened on this topic
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1201.0/00089.html
He has posted some patches for lcd panel power control, so can I go
ahead and extend this driver to meet our requirements?
Here is the link for the patch set
