From a9a84c37d1ee50db8f3752b117caf2b48dcd4f8a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Brownell Date: Wed, 6 Feb 2008 01:39:26 -0800 Subject: atmel_lcdfb: backlight control On the sam9 EK boards, the LCD backlight is hooked up to a PWM output from the LCD controller. It's controlled by "contrast" registers though. This patch lets boards declare that they have that kind of backlight control. The driver can then export this control, letting screenblank and other operations actually take effect ... reducing the typically substantial power drain from the backlight. Note that it's not fully cooked - doesn't force backlight off during system suspend - the "power" and "blank" events may not be done right This should be easily added in the future.
