fbdev/core: Move framebuffer and backlight helpers into separate files Move framebuffer and backlight helpers into separate files. Leave fbsysfs.c to sysfs-related code. No functional changes. The framebuffer helpers are not in fbmem.c because they are under GPL-2.0-or-later copyright, while fbmem.c is GPL-2.0. v2: * include <linux/mutex.h> (Sam) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20230613110953.24176-34-tzimmermann@suse.de

backlight: Match backlight device against struct fb_info.bl_dev Framebuffer drivers for devices with dedicated backlight are supposed to set struct fb_info.bl_dev to the backlight's respective device. Use the value to match backlight and framebuffer in the backlight core code. The code first tests against struct backlight_ops.check_ops. If this test succeeds, it performs the test against fbdev. So backlight drivers can override the later test as before. Fbdev's backlight support depends on CONFIG_FB_BACKLIGHT. To avoid ifdef in the code, the new helper fb_bl_device() returns the backlight device, or NULL if the config option has been disabled. The test in the backlight code will then do nothing. v4: * declare empty fb_bl_device() as static inline * export fb_bl_device() v3: * hide ifdef in fb_bl_device() (Lee) * no if-else blocks (Andy) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240305162425.23845-2-tzimmermann@suse.de Signed-off-by: Lee Jones <lee@kernel.org>
