LP855x backlight device can be enabled by external VDD input.
The 'supply' data is used for this purpose.
It's kind of private data which runs internally, so there is no reason to
expose to the platform data.
And LP855x DT property, 'power-supply' is unnecessary.
If a regulator is registered correctly, then lp855x driver can get
regulator resource by using devm_regulator_get().
So devm_regulator_get() is moved from _parse_dt() to _probe().
Ex) The following device tree works without 'power-supply' property.
i2c0: i2c@10002000 {
(snip)
backlight@2c {
compatible = "ti,lp8556";
reg = <0x2c>;
bl-name = "lcd-bl";
dev-ctrl = /bits/ 8 <0x85>;
init-brt = /bits/ 8 <0x10>;
};
};
/* 'power' regulator for LP8556 VDD */
bl_vdd: fixed-regulator@1 {
compatible = "regulator-fixed";
regulator-name = "power";
regulator-min-microvolt = <3300000>;
regulator-max-microvolt = <3300000>;
(snip)
};

Even if it's not 'required', I think it would be good to have it in
DT, as it describes the hardware, right?

OK, I see.
If the 'regulator-name' is changed from 'power' to other names,
lp855x driver will not find the regulator. However, when 'power-supply' is added, it is more noticeable.
To Milo,
Would you send the patch v2 that
does not remove dt property from lp855x.txt?
