Subject: [PATCH] Platform: Samsung Q10 backlight driver

This adds backlight control on the Samsung Q10 laptop, which does not support 
the SABI interface. Also tested successfully on the Dell Latitude X200.

 create mode 100644 drivers/platform/x86/samsung-q10.c

The Samsung Q10 is an old model, which does not support the SABI interface, so
the samsung-laptop driver does not work. Backlight control is not exposed via
ACPI either. This driver works in the same way as the SMI handler triggered by 
pressing the brightness function keys. Please let me know any feedback towards 
getting this driver included.
