<content type='text'>
commit 1ca8819320fd84e7d95b04e7668efc5f9fe9fa5c upstream.

Struct lv5207lp_platform_data refers to a platform device within
the Linux device hierarchy. The test in lv5207lp_backlight_check_fb()
compares it against the fbdev device in struct fb_info.dev, which
is different. Fix the test by comparing to struct fb_info.device.

Fixes a bug in the backlight driver and prepares fbdev for making
struct fb_info.dev optional.

v2:
	* move renames into separate patch (Javier, Sam, Michael)

Fixes: 82e5c40d88f9 ("backlight: Add Sanyo LV5207LP backlight driver")

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.

  Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening
  in the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and
  "struct class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these
  changes.

  This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
  "provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules
  for all busses and classes in the kernel.

  The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
  busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
  instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
  subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most
  of them actually did so.

  Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
  things:

   - kobject logging improvements

   - cacheinfo improvements and updates

   - obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes

   - documentation updates

   - device property cleanups and const * changes

   - firwmare loader dependency fixes.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems"

The module pointer in class_create() never actually did anything, and it
shouldn't have been requred to be set as a parameter even if it did
something.  So just remove it and fix up all callers of the function in
the kernel tree at the same time.

It is preferred to use typed property access functions (i.e.
of_property_read_&lt;type&gt; functions) rather than low-level
of_get_property/of_find_property functions for reading properties.
Convert reading boolean properties to to of_property_read_bool().

It is preferred to use typed property access functions (i.e.

of_get_property/of_find_property functions for reading properties. As
part of this, convert of_get_property/of_find_property calls to the
recently added of_property_present() helper when we just want to test
for presence of a property and nothing more.

The driver will match mostly by DT table (even thought there is regular
ID table) so there is little benefit in of_match_ptr (this also allows
ACPI matching via PRP0001, even though it might not be relevant here).
