The two properties: - max-brightness - default brightness are not really required, so they can be removed from the "required" section. The "max-brightness" is no longer used in the current version of the driver (it was used only in the first version). The "default-brightness", if omitted in the DT, is managed by the device driver, using a default value. This value depends on the dimming mode used: - for the "analog mode", via I2C commands, this value is fixed by hardware (=31) - while in case of pwm mode the default used is the last value of the brightness-levels array. Also the brightness-levels array is not required: - in "analog mode", via I2C commands, the brightness-level array is fixed by hardware (0..31).; - in pwm dimming mode, the driver uses a default array of 0..255 and the "default-brightness" is the last one, which is "255" NOTE: there are no compatibility problems with the previous version, since the device driver has not yet been included in any kernel. Only this dt-binding yaml file is already included in the current v6.7.0-rc1 kernel version. No developer may have used it. Other changes: - improve the backlight working mode description, in the "description" section - update the example, removing the "max-brightness" and introducing the "brightess-levels" property Signed-off-by: Flavio Suligoi <f.suligoi@asem.it> Acked-by: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@microchip.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231116105319.957600-2-f.suligoi@asem.itSigned-off-by: Lee Jones <lee@kernel.org>
