Christian Hitz 4d29edea49 leds: leds-lp50xx: Enable chip before any communication 
commit 434959618c upstream.

If a GPIO is used to control the chip's enable pin, it needs to be pulled
high before any i2c communication is attempted.

Currently, the enable GPIO handling is not correct.

Assume the enable GPIO is low when the probe function is entered. In this
case the device is in SHUTDOWN mode and does not react to i2c commands.

During probe the following sequence happens:
 1. The call to lp50xx_reset() on line 548 has no effect as i2c is not
    possible yet.
 2. Then - on line 552 - lp50xx_enable_disable() is called. As
    "priv->enable_gpio“ has not yet been initialized, setting the GPIO has
    no effect. Also the i2c enable command is not executed as the device
    is still in SHUTDOWN.
 3. On line 556 the call to lp50xx_probe_dt() finally parses the rest of
    the DT and the configured priv->enable_gpio is set up.

As a result the device is still in SHUTDOWN mode and not ready for
operation.

Split lp50xx_enable_disable() into distinct enable and disable functions
to enforce correct ordering between enable_gpio manipulations and i2c
commands.
Read enable_gpio configuration from DT before attempting to manipulate
enable_gpio.
Add delays to observe correct wait timing after manipulating enable_gpio
and before any i2c communication.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
