This is another small step on the path to liberating davinci from legacy
GPIO API calls and shrinking the davinci GPIO driver by not having to
support the base GPIO number anymore.

This time we're removing the legacy calls used indirectly by the LCDC
fbdev driver.

The first three patches modify the GPIO backlight driver. The first
of them adds the necessary functionality, the other two are just
tweaks and cleanups.

Can you take the first three patches for v5.3 - if its not too late? I
think that will make it easy for rest of patches to make into subsequent
kernel releases.

It's already too late in the cycle (-rc7) for that.  I require patches
of this nature to have a good soak in -next before being merged. There
shouldn't be an issue with getting them into v5.4 though.

Next two patches enable the GPIO backlight driver in
davinci_all_defconfig.

Patch 6/12 models the backlight GPIO as an actual GPIO backlight device.

Patches 7-9 extend the fbdev driver with regulator support and convert
the da850-evm board file to using it.

Last three patches are improvements to the da8xx fbdev driver since
we're already touching it in this series.

Thanks,
Sekhar
