Sorry, but after finding a build warning in this patch, I looked closer and
found more issues. I would recommend reverting this patch.

It is nonsense to look at the device node for the parent and then find
the child by using of_find_node_by_name(). What you should do instead
is ensure that the backlight platform device gets connected to the
DT device node by the MFD core. I did not think I'd use the ab8500
driver as a positive example, but it gets this right by using the
of_compatible member for the mfd_cell.

For boolean values, we should use of_property_read_bool, which checks
the presence of the property and returns "true" if it exists and false
otherwise. There is no need to assign a value to the property that way,
and it's more consistent with other drivers.

As I suggested in my earlier patch, the #ifdef is not necessary. I suggested
using "if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF))" earlier, but it's actually simpler
to just return from this function if no node was found. of_find_node_by_name
is already defined to an empty function returning NULL when CONFIG_OF
is turned off.

Using a dynamic allocation for pdata is way overkill here, since the data is
only used in one place below and then never again. A proper method to
do this would be

	if (of_property_read_bool(pdev->dev.of_node, "maxim,max8925-dual-string"))
		value |= 2;

No need to have a separate function or complex parsing at all, and if CONFIG_OF
is disabled, the code goes away entirely.

Note that when you have a function whose return value is never checked, it
should not return errors but just "void".

Finally, there is no reason to remove the empty line. If it was a good idea
to remove it, that should probably be a separate patch to clean up the coding
style.
