[PATCH 1/1 v4] pwm_bl: Add support for backlight enable regulator

From: Andrew Chew
Date: Wed Mar 06 2013 - 12:17:26 EST


The backlight enable regulator is specified in the device tree node for
backlight.

Signed-off-by: Andrew Chew <achew@xxxxxxxxxx>

Changed the name of the property from en-supply to enable-supply.

Made enable-supply a mandatory property. Changed the example in the
bindings documentation accordingly.

Moved devm_regulator_get() to the probe function. Regulator is now
requested unconditionally.

Changed IS_ERR_OR_NULL to IS_ERR per Alex's recommendation.
