v3: Split patch 3/3 in v2 into 2 patches: one makes changes to acpi_video and one adds the int3406 driver as suggested by Rafael. There should be no functionality change compared to v2. v2: The display thermal device represents the LED/LCD display panel that may or may not include touch support. The main function of the display thermal device is to allow control of the display brightness in order to address a thermal condition or to reduce power consumed by display device. Due to the way this thermal device changes brightness level is said to be deprecated so we are using the raw interface to do the actual backlight change. This requires the backlight core support so two new APIs are added and exported in patch 1/3. With this, the previous API backlight_device_registered can be removed and this is done in patch 2/3. Patch 3/3 adds the new int3406 thermal driver. The 1st version is here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.acpi.devel/72619 This whole series should go through the thermal tree if applied.
