Would it be enough to tell userspace what is relation between values
it writes and output power?

Onoff is subset of linear, I guess. We already have max_brightness in
the API.

This would require colorspace conversion in kernel. I have:

    	    scales = (1., 0.39, 0.11) # for n900
            val = map(lambda x: int((x**2.2)*255), val)
	    (r, g, b) = val

	    (r_, g_, b_) = m.scales
	    red = r*r_
	    ...

x**2.2 is simplified, real expression is more complex. But it is
floating point math...

Do we want to do that?
