+TPS611xx family of backlight driver based on EasyScale.
+
+EasyScale is a simple but flexible one pin interface to configure the current.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should contain at least one of
+ "ti,tps61158_bl"
+ "ti,tps61161_bl"
+ "ti,tps61163_bl"
+ "ti,tps61165_bl"
+- rfa-enable: enable request for acknowledge.
+ If RFA is enabled, the data byte includes the RFA bit and device will wait
+ and check acknowledge from device.
+- es-gpio : GPIO for easy-scale communication.(see GPIO binding[0])
+
+[0]: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt
+
+Example:
+
+ backlight {
+ compatible = "ti,tps61163";
+ rfa-enable;
+ es-gpio = <&gpio 45 0>;
+ };

1.7.9.5
This driver is a general version for tps611xx backlgiht chips of TI.
It supports tps61158, tps61161, tps61163 and tps61165 backlight driver
based on EasyScale protocol(1-Wire Control Interface).
EasyScale
EasyScale is a simple but flexible one pin interface to configure the current.
The interface is based on a master-slave structure, where the master is
typically a microcontroller or application processor and the IC is the slave.
The advantage of EasyScale compared with other one pin interfaces is that
its bit detection is in a large extent independent from the bit transmission
rate. It can automatically detect bit rates between 1.7kBit/sec and up
to 160kBit/sec.
EasyScale on TPS61163
A command consists of 24 bits, including an 8-bit device address byte and
a 16-bit data byte. All of the 24 bits should be transmitted together each
time, and the LSB bit should be transmitted first. The device address byte
A7(MSB)~A0(LSB) is fixed to 0x8F.
The data byte includes 9 bits D8(MSB)~D0(LSB) for brightness information
and an RFA bit. The RFA bit set to "1" indicates the Request for Acknowledge
condition. The Acknowledge condition is only applied when the protocol is
received correctly.
Bit sream : D0-D8 | 0 | RFA | 00000 | A0-A7
Please refer to the links below for more details.
http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tps61163.pdf
EasyScale on TPS61158/61/65
A command consists of 16 bits, including an 8-bit device address byte
and a 8-bit data byte. All of the 16 bits should be transmitted together
each time, and the MSB bit should be transmitted first. The device address
byte A7(MSB)~A0(LSB) is fixed (tps61158 0x58 tps61161 and tps61165 0x72).
The data byte includes an RFA bit.
The RFA bit set to "1" indicates the Request for Acknowledge condition.
The Acknowledge condition is only applied when the protocol is received
correctly.
Bit sream : A7-A0 | RFA | 00 | D4-D0
Please refer to the links below for more details.

In v3 I asked you to get rid of the "_bl" suffix.

You didn't answer my question as to why this should be in the DT.

This now doesn't match the Documentation above.
Thanks,

Sure, things works differently if this is set. That I understood.
What I haven't heard is a rationale as to why this configuration option
shuold be in the DT.
Can I enable this on all implementations, or not?
When would I enable this and when would I not?
The property reads like a switch to turn a feature on, rather than the
description of the presence of a feature.
