[PATCH v3] Platform: Samsung Q10 backlight driver

From: Frederick van der Wyck
Date: Mon Jul 04 2011 - 17:37:47 EST


This driver adds backlight control on the Samsung Q10 laptop,
which does not support the SABI interface. Also tested
successfully on Samsung Q20, Samsung Q25 and Dell Latitude X200.

v3: Add Samsung Q20 and Samsung Q25 to dmi check.

v2: Changes suggested by Greg and Dmitry, in particular use i8042 instead
of port IO and add DMI detection.

v1: The Samsung Q10 does not support the SABI interface, so the
samsung-laptop driver cannot be used to control the
backlight. Backlight control is not exposed via ACPI either. This
driver works in the same way as the SMI handler triggered by
pressing the brightness function keys.
