drm/i915/display: avoid warnings when registering dual panel backlight
Commit 20f85ef8 ("drm/i915/backlight: use unique backlight device names") added support for multiple backlight devices on dual panel systems, but did so with error handling on -EEXIST from backlight_device_register(). Unfortunately, that triggered a warning in dmesg all the way down from sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() and sysfs_warn_dup(). Instead of optimistically always attempting to register with the default name ("intel_backlight", which we have to retain for backward compatibility), check if a backlight device with the name exists first, and, if so, use the card and connector based name. v2: reworked on top of the patch commit 20f85ef8 ("drm/i915/backlight: use unique backlight device names") v3: fixed the ref count leak(Jani N) Fixes: 20f85ef8 ("drm/i915/backlight: use unique backlight device names") Signed-off-by: Arun R Murthy <arun.r.murthy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20220808035750.3111046-1-arun.r.murthy@intel.com
