Or maybe this is getting buggered by the idiotic deferred probing... It
seems that the GPIOs for controlling the LCD and backlight aren't even
getting claimed if the DSS modules are built in:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/gpio
...
GPIOs 238-255, platform/twl4030_gpio, twl4030, can sleep:
# echo panel-dpi.0 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/panel-dpi/unbind
# echo panel-dpi.0 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/panel-dpi/bind
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/gpio
...
GPIOs 238-255, platform/twl4030_gpio, twl4030, can sleep:
gpio-245 (panel enable ) out lo
gpio-253 (panel backlight ) out lo
Tony, try this with the stuff not as modules but built-in.
