backlight: gpio-backlight: Use default-on on GPIO request
There are situations where the backlight should be on at boot time (e.g. if the boot loader already turned the display on). The DT bindings specify the "default-on" property for that purpose. Currently, the initial state of the GPIO at request time is always set to logical off (high or low depending on whether it is an active high or low GPIO). Since the GPIO is requested as an output, the GPIO will be driven low for a short period of time, which leads to a flickering display in the above use-case. Initialize the GPIO depending on the default-on property to be logical on or off. Signed-off-by: Stefan Agner <stefan@agner.ch> Signed-off-by: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org>
