Hi Simon,

board_type doesn't apply here.

The board can be used in

Device-Type A
Device-Type B
Device-Type C

all of them may have different backlights.
So it comes, that device-type A has different variants where one has backlight using PMIC, the other one has backlight using PWM.

For this we have an entry within the device-tree (brightdrv) on linux devices, and on vxworks-devices (where we don't have a device-tree) we have same as variable in environment.

The board_type variable is used to separate "Device-Type A, Device-Type B, ..."

At this time only one of my boards (brxre2, not committed yet) has this variable in use.

best regards,
Hannes

in future we support yet another b&r am335x based board, where Timer 5 is
wired to backlight-driver.

So we introduce a new driver-type '2' to setup timer5 instead timer6.

You might consider using an enum for the board type.
