SubjectRe: [PATCHv6 4/4] drm/omap: add support for manually updated displays

I've tested this with Linux next and the latest lm3532
patches and it works fine as long as we leave out the
backlight = <&lcd_backlight> entry from dts like I
replied in the lm3532 tread. So as far as I'm concerned,
we're good to go:
