Hi Thierry,
Since recently, and probable since last Linus's merge of PWM tree (Merge tag
'pwm/for-3.13-rc1' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/thierry.reding/linux-pwm), my
platform has its backlight broken.
The particularity of my platform:
- arch/arm/mach-pxa/mioa701.c
- no device tree
- no power supply regulator for backlight
- backlight controlled by a PWM
- kernel message :
[ 1.495480] platform pwm-backlight: Driver pwm-backlight requests probe deferral
I think other "old" platforms will suffer from this. Do you have a
recommendation ?
Cheers.
