The X11 license notice states explicitly that the notice has to be
included in the file.  Wouldn't removing it be a violation of the license?

FYI, this was copied from another .dts file.  All of the other
brightness-levels settings in sun{4,5,7}i .dts files follow similar
patterns:

sun4i-a10-dserve-dsrv9703c.dts:               brightness-levels = <0 10
20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100>;
sun4i-a10-inet1.dts:          brightness-levels = <0 10 20 30 40 50 60
70 80 90 100>;
sun4i-a10-pov-protab2-ips9.dts:               brightness-levels = <0 10
20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100>;
sun5i-a13-empire-electronix-d709.dts:         brightness-levels = <0 10
20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100>;
sun5i-a13-utoo-p66.dts:       brightness-levels = <0 30 40 50 60 70 80
90 100>;
sun5i-gr8-evb.dts:            brightness-levels = <0 10 20 30 40 50 60
70 80 90 100>;
sun7i-a20-wexler-tab7200.dts:         brightness-levels = <0 10 20 30 40
50 60 70 80 90 100>;

I'll take the brightness-levels from sun8i-a83t-tbs-a711.dts which
follows a more appropriate pattern:

sun8i-a83t-tbs-a711.dts:              brightness-levels = <0 1 2 4 8 16
32 64 128 255>;


Thanks,

Bob
