Can this one be left out.
I did something similar and put the brightness (and display output)
initialization into separate functions for bug #9614:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9614
My patches go a step further and make sure that not several drivers try to do
the switching.
They probably still need a bit testing and reviewing, but the first one:
Cleanup: Initialize brightness and display switching in separate functions
could replace this one (maybe a small one on top is still needed) already?
This would make things easier for me.
Could these three posted on the bug go into linux-next or into -mm?
Or should I better set up separate [PATCH 0/3] mails?
Thanks,
Thomas
