Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] cros_kbd_led_backlight: allow binding through cros_ec mfd device

Extend the cros_ec MFD device to also load cros_kbd_led_backlight
when the EC reports EC_FEATURE_PWM_KEYB.
As the driver can now be probed multiple times, some preparation in the
LED core is necessary to avoid name collisions.

Patch 1 is a general cleanup for the LED core.
Patch 2 modifies the LED core to skip the default collision handling.
Patch 3 adds the new probing logic to cros_kbd_led_backlight.
Patch 4 wires up the driver to the cros_ec mfd devices.

The helper keyboard_led_is_mfd_device is a bit iffy.
But using match data doesn't work.

* driver_data from platform_device_id is overwritten by the mfd platform data
* Setting the driver_data in drivers/mfd/cros_ec_dev.c would expose the
internals of cros_kbd_led_backlight

Tested on a Framework 13 AMD, Firmware 3.05, and a Jinlon Chromebook.

Changes in v3:
- Avoid probing multiple times (Confirmed by Rajas)
- Add Kconfig dependency on MFD_CROS_EC_DEV
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240511-cros_ec-kbd-led-framework-v2-0-b20c48109e46@weissschuh.net

Changes in v2:
- Fix build with CONFIG_MFD_CROS_EC_DEV=n (kernel test robot)
- Split out mfd registration into own commit (Lee)
- Simplify keyboard_led_is_mfd_device() with mfd_get_cell()
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240505-cros_ec-kbd-led-framework-v1-1-bfcca69013d2@weissschuh.net

Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] leds: add flag to avoid automatic renaming of led devices

Add a mechanism for drivers to opt-out of the automatic device renaming
on conflicts.
Those drivers will provide their own conflict resolution.

Load cros_kbd_led_backlight when the EC reports EC_FEATURE_PWM_KEYB.
This makes cros_kbd_led_backlight work on machines without specific

Looks okay.

Does the platform patch need to be applied with the others?

Thanks.

Each patch depends on all its predecessors.
(but I'm not sure I understood your question)

Does the Platform patch have 'build-time' deps on the others?

Yes.

Patch 3 makes use of LED_REJECT_NAME_CONFLICT which was introduced in Patch 2.

Patch 1, 2, 3 have build-time deps on their predecessors.
Patch 4 has a run-time deps on Patch 3.
