[PATCHv3 19/41] OMAPDSS: panel-dpi: Add DT support

[Tony Lindgren]

Hi,

Just trying to summarize what has been discussed so far in
various threads regarding changes needed to this patch.

We should set the GPIO polarity based on the OF_GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW like
gpio_backlight_probe_dt is doing. 

Then do we really want to do the dev_err for each -EPROBE_DEFER here?

How about let's drop the backlight_gpio as discussed since it
can be handled with gpio-backlight?

Instead, let's add the panel specific reset_gpio as suggested by
Joachim. That seems common to some dpi using panels.

Then support for the other panel specific GPIOs can then be added
as a follow-up patch when we know how we want to handle them.

Oh, and this patch needs the related binding documentation too in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings.

Tony
