Hi,

This series aims to add a led-backlight driver, similar to pwm-backlight, but
using a LED class device underneath.

LED framework has no support for DT or getting a LED class driver from another
kernel driver, so I added minimal functionality to led-class to get
led-backlight working.

Changes to v3:
- Change a comment to refer to of_led_get()

Changes to v2:
- power supply is now optional
- cosmetic changes
- no-op function for led_put() when !CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS

Changes to v1:
- Split LED OF parts into separate .h and .c files
- Check for CONFIG_OF and CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS where relevant to leave unused code
  out.
- Improved error prints and comments a bit
- Added put_device() into led_put(), as the device was gotten from
  class_find_device() which requires a put_device() call.

There's been no more comments on this. Should this be merged via led or
backlight trees?

Possible conflicts probably happen on the led side, as this changes the
led core files, so perhaps that's easier way?
