Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 1/2] backlight: pwm_bl: Move the checks for initial
 power state to a separate function

Thierry, Jingoo,

Please have your say.

> Move the checks to select the initial state for the backlight to a new
> function and document the checks we are doing.
> 
> With the separate function it is going to be easier to fix or improve the
> initial power state configuration later and it is easier to read the code.
