SubjectRe: [PATCH 0/3] pwm-backlight: add subdrivers & Tegra support

Basically, yes - I still think power-seqs could be useful here
(especially after seeing the size of these sub-drivers if you want to
do error checking properly) and plan to give it another shot without
DT, but this will not happen soon since we need to do some GPIO
redesign before. You can see what's wrong in the init() function of
the subdriver: we call a device tree function to obtain the GPIO as
there is no get function.

Yes, feel free to write a subdriver for Cardhu if you like - I'd like
to see all T20 and T30 boards supported by the time this gets merged.

Thanks,
Alex.
