I have a quick question on this. I did a git grep and found that the
other drivers used the function of_find_backlight_by_node defined in
video/backlight. This seems to be doing a different thing (taking
struct device_node* as a parameter instead of struct device*).
Basically, this function finds the backlight device by device-tree node.
How would you suggest converting these cases ?

Thanks and regards,
