Hi, Just a small nit on the patch title: "delete owner assignment" is virtually useless as a title because it has no meaning without the broader context and only describes the literal change. It's like naming a patch "add a line" or "change the code"; it serves no purpose. How about "backlight-tosa: delete _unnecessary_ assignment"? This immediately communicates the reason for/intent of the patch (there is unnecessary code, thus we can simplify it). (Sorry about singling out this patch and the apparent bikeshedding, this comment obviously applies to a lot of patches by a lot of authors!) Thanks, Vegard
