The original tegra20 display driver was written before Linux had device tree
bindings for display. Since then Linux has developed a robust set of bindings
covering various aspects of enabling a display.
This series moves closer to those bindings by using the panel and backlight
as separate drivers. The device tree files for seaboard, ventana and harmony
thereby become almost the same as Linux.
Unfortunately this breaks the other boards, which will need a similar sync.
So I'm not sure how easy it will be to accept this series. Still, it seems
worth sending it out in the hope that board maintainers can help. I have
kept this series separate so that it can progress separately.
Can't that be handled by placing the new code under an ifdef, so the
source code can support either the old or the new scheme, then each
board can be converted over and the ifdef flipped in its per-board
config file, then the ifdef removed once all boards are converted?
