From 3e074058d72486676f6fdf6fe803200c62dcb403 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans-Christian Egtvedt Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 21:31:48 -0700 Subject: fbdev: LCD backlight driver using Atmel PWM driver This patch adds a platform driver using the ATMEL PWM driver to control a backlight which requires a PWM signal and optional GPIO signal for discrete on/off signal. It has been tested on Favr-32 board from EarthLCD. The driver is configurable by supplying a struct with the platform data. See the include/linux/atmel-pwm-bl.h for details. The board code for Favr-32 will be submitted to the AVR32 kernel list.
