I don't think the problem is with the creation of the framebuffer.

Maybe, but that's the problem - finding out what is missing. This is the
endless problem where things keep changing - it's very difficult to keep
a "working configuration" working because the config symbols keep changing.
Also, bear in mind that there's many different variants of the LDP hardware
with stuff connected up in different ways (I'm aware that the keypad is
just randomly allocated). I wouldn't be surprised if this also applied
to how the backlight on the LCD was done.

I see no errors there.
Okay, while digging through the changes, I found this - this is the old
code. gpio + 15 is the backlight enable GPIO.
static int ldp_twl_gpio_setup(struct device *dev, unsigned gpio, unsigned
ngpio)
{
- ldp_panel_data.gpios[0] = gpio + 7;
- ldp_panel_data.gpio_invert[0] = true;
- ldp_panel_data.gpios[1] = gpio + 15;
- ldp_panel_data.gpio_invert[1] = true;
return 0;
}
...
-static int generic_dpi_panel_power_on(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev)
-{
...
- for (i = 0; i < panel_data->num_gpios; ++i) {
- gpio_set_value_cansleep(panel_data->gpios[i],
- panel_data->gpio_invert[i] ? 0 : 1);
- }
-static void generic_dpi_panel_power_off(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev)
-{
...
- for (i = panel_data->num_gpios - 1; i >= 0; --i) {
- gpio_set_value_cansleep(panel_data->gpios[i],
- panel_data->gpio_invert[i] ? 1 : 0);
- }
-static int generic_dpi_panel_probe(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev)
-{
- for (i = 0; i < panel_data->num_gpios; ++i) {
- r = devm_gpio_request_one(dssdev->dev, panel_data->gpios[i],
- panel_data->gpio_invert[i] ?
- GPIOF_OUT_INIT_HIGH : GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW,
- "panel gpio");
- if (r)
- return r;
- }
So, when gpio_invert[] is set, the signal is active low for "on". What
does the new code do?
static int ldp_twl_gpio_setup(struct device *dev, unsigned gpio, unsigned
ngpio)
{
+ /* LCD enable GPIO */
+ ldp_lcd_pdata.enable_gpio = gpio + 7;
+ /* Backlight enable GPIO */
+ ldp_lcd_pdata.backlight_gpio = gpio + 15;
...
static int panel_dpi_enable(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev)
{
...
if (gpio_is_valid(ddata->backlight_gpio))
gpio_set_value_cansleep(ddata->backlight_gpio, 1);
...
static void panel_dpi_disable(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev)
{
...
if (gpio_is_valid(ddata->backlight_gpio))
gpio_set_value_cansleep(ddata->backlight_gpio, 0);
...
static int panel_dpi_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
...
if (gpio_is_valid(ddata->backlight_gpio)) {
r = devm_gpio_request_one(&pdev->dev, ddata->backlight_gpio,
GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW, "panel backlight");
which is fixed at active-high for "on".
Would you like to revise whether this works for you... I suspect that
you're missing configuration which means that the backlight_gpio is
not valid, and hence it's being left in same default state (maybe by
the boot loader?)
