[ Upstream commit bb084c0f61d659f0e6d371b096e0e57998f191d6 ]

The documentation was wrong, gpiod_get_direction() returns 0/1 instead
of the GPIOF_* flags. The docs were fixed with commit 94fc73094abe47
("gpio: correct docs about return value of gpiod_get_direction"). Now,
fix this user (until a better, system-wide solution is in place).

commit 2b12dfa124dbadf391cb9a616aaa6b056823bf75 upstream.

Fix child-node lookup during probe, which ended up searching the whole
device tree depth-first starting at the parent rather than just matching
on its children.

This would only cause trouble if the child node is missing while there
is an unrelated node named "backlight" elsewhere in the tree.

commit d1cc0ec3da23e44c23712579515494b374f111c9 upstream.

Fix child-node lookup during probe, which ended up searching the whole
device tree depth-first starting at the parent rather than just matching
on its children.

To make things worse, the parent mfd node was also prematurely freed,
while the child backlight node was leaked.

for acquiring device resources.

Add of_find_backlight, a helper function which is a generic version
of tinydrm_of_find_backlight that can be used by other drivers to avoid
repetition of code and simplify things.

<title>backlight: tdo24m: Fix the SPI CS between transfers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2023b0524a6310e9ea80daf085f51c71bff9289f</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently the LCD display (TD035S) on the cm-x300 platform is broken and
remains blank.

The TD0245S specification requires that the chipselect is toggled
between commands sent to the panel. This was also the purpose of the
former patch of commit f64dcac0b124 ("backlight: tdo24m: ensure chip
select changes between transfers").

Unfortunately, the "cs_change" field of a SPI transfer is
misleading. Its true meaning is that for a SPI message holding multiple
transfers, the chip select is toggled between each transfer, but for the
last transfer it remains asserted.

In this driver, all the SPI messages contain exactly one transfer, which
means that each transfer is the last of its message, and as a
consequence the chip select is never toggled.

Actually, there was a second bug hidding the first one, hence the
problem was not seen until v4.6. This problem was fixed by commit
a52db659c79c ("spi: pxa2xx: Fix cs_change management") for PXA based
boards.

This fix makes the TD035S work again on a cm-x300 board. The same
applies to other PXA boards, ie. corgi and tosa.

pci_get_bus_and_slot() is restrictive such that it assumes domain=0 as
where a PCI device is present. This restricts the device drivers to be
reused for other domain numbers.

Getting ready to remove pci_get_bus_and_slot() function in favor of
pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot().

Hard-coding the domain as 0.
