I was trying to adjust the brightness-levels for the trogdor boards: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/2291209 Like on a lot of panels, trogdor's low end needs to be cropped, and now that we have the interpolation stuff I wanted to make use of it and bake in even the curve that's customary to have on chromebooks. I found the current behavior of the pwm_bl driver a little unintuitive and non-linear. See patch 1 for a suggested fix for this. A few veyron dts files were relying on this (perhaps weird) behavior. Those devices also want a minimum brightness like trogdor, so changed them to use the new way. Finally, given that trogdor's dts is part of linux-next now, add the brightness-levels to it, since that's the original reason I was looking at this. Changes in v3: - Reordered patches, since both dts changes will work just fine even before the driver change. - Rewrote a bit of the commit message to describe the new policy, as Daniel suggested. - Removed redundant s64 for something that's always positive Changes in v2: - Fixed type promotion in the driver - Removed "backlight: pwm_bl: Artificially add 0% during interpolation", userspace works just fine without it because it already knows how to use bl_power for turning off the display. - Added brightness-levels to trogdor as well, now the dts is upstream.
