I don't know what the above has to do with the patches posted. Please don't send this raw patches even as RFC. If you only want to discuss, let's discuss, but in this case the patches were a distraction, sorry. One of the big opens is that AFAICT this still detects desired black screen as dark screen, and flags it as a problem. Now, the patches do only log something to dmesg, so it's neither here or there, but if you want to do something more clever, this is a consideration.
