[PATCH] backlight: Add of_find_backlight_by_node() function

Thierry Reding thierry.reding at avionic-design.de
Thu Nov 8 09:08:39 EST 2012


This function finds the struct backlight_device for a given device tree
node. A dummy function is provided so that it safely compiles out if OF
support is disabled.
