<content type='text'>
Platform PWM backlight data provided by board's device tree should be
complete enough to successfully request a pwm device using pwm_get()
API. This change fixes a bug, when an arbitrary (first found) PWM is
connected to a "pwm-backlight" compatible device, when explicit PWM
device reference is not given.

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/video/backlight/pwm-backlight.txt
already describes "pwms" as a required property, instead of blind
selection of a potentially wrong PWM reject legacy PWM device
registration request, leave legacy API only for non-dt cases.

Based on initial implementation done by Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov.

for_each_child_of_node performs an of_node_get on each iteration, so
a break out of the loop requires an of_node_put.

The semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr):

// &lt;smpl&gt;
@@
expression root,e;
local idexpression child;
iterator name for_each_child_of_node;
@@

 for_each_child_of_node(root, child) {
   ... when != of_node_put(child)
       when != e = child
+  of_node_put(child);
?  break;
   ...
}
... when != child
// &lt;/smpl&gt;

<title>backlight: tosa: Export I2C module alias information</title>

The I2C core always reports the MODALIAS uevent as "i2c:&lt;modalias&gt;"
regardless of the mechanism that was used to register the device
(i.e: OF or board code) and the table that is used later to match
the driver with the device (i.e: I2C id table or OF match table).

So drivers needs to export the I2C id table and this be built into
the module or udev won't have the necessary information to autoload
the needed driver module when the device is added.
