Thanks for your suggestion.
'ti-lmu-backlight' is the common part of lmxxxx_bl drivers. And each
lmxxx_bl has its own operation functions by using ti_lmu_bl_ops.
I've tried to make consolidated driver but it contained too much device
specific code in one file. So I prefer simple drivers structure -
'common part' and 'device specific operations'.
It would be appreciated if you could introduce better idea.
Best regards,
Milo
