* backlight: Separate backlight properties from backlight ops pointersRichard Purdie2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | Per device data such as brightness belongs to the indivdual device and should therefore be separate from the the backlight operation function pointers. This patch splits the two types of data and allows simplifcation of some code. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>

* backlight: Fix external uses of backlight internal semaphoreRichard Purdie2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | backlight_device->sem has a very specific use as documented in the header file. The external users of this are using it for a different reason, to serialise access to the update_status() method. backlight users were supposed to implement their own internal serialisation of update_status() if needed but everyone is doing things differently and incorrectly. Therefore add a global mutex to take care of serialisation for everyone, once and for all. Locking for get_brightness remains optional since most users don't need it. Also update the lcd class in a similar way. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
* backlight: Remove unneeded owner fieldRichard Purdie2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | Remove uneeded owner field from backlight_properties structure. Nothing uses it and it is unlikely that it will ever be used. The backlight class uses other means to ensure that nothing references unloaded code. Based on a patch from Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@insightbb.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
