Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 1/1] backlight: hid_bl: Add VESA virtual control panel HID backlight driver

Hi,

this should probably also go to the maintainers of the "HID CORE LAYER"
for review:

HID CORE LAYER
M: Jiri Kosina <[email protected]>
M: Benjamin Tissoires <[email protected]>
L: [email protected]

And maybe it would better fit to be in drivers/hid/ ?
(Something for the maintainers to figure out)

Some tiny review comments inline.

Are these explicit devm_ cleanups needed, shouldn't the driver core take
care of it?
I'm not sure myself.

Some functions are using the generic hid_ prefix instead of the more
specific hid_bl_, is that intentional?

If this fails should the probe continue?

The errorcodes would be useful to log, too.
