If that is the case, then shouldn't it be at the end, after val *= lbpc? I know it doesn't make much difference, as multiplying with an even number always gives an even result, but it would make the intention clearer and give a more precise result. What about gen 3? Does it support combination mode too? If you can confirm that there are no gen 2 systems with ASLE support, we can remove the gen 2 check and only touch the PWM register, as the ASLE code is the only one that changes the brightness. The panel code only saves and restores it, and LBPC is saved and restored by the BIOS already. Then those weird gen 2 quirks can be removed. (Something for 2.6.39 perhaps.) It's sad that something as simple as backlight control needs so much code.
