Thank you for your work on this. I have one small change request
and then v5 should be ready for merging, see me inline comment
below.

If settings below 60 are no good, then the correct way to handle
this is to limit the range to 0 - (255-60) and add / substract
60 when setting / getting the brightness.

E.g. do something like this:

#define SCREENPAD_MIN_BRIGHTNESS	60
#define SCREENPAD_MAX_BRIGHTNESS	255

	props.max_brightness = SCREENPAD_MAX_BRIGHTNESS - SCREENPAD_MIN_BRIGHTNESS;

And in update_screenpad_bl_status() do:

	ctrl_param = bd->props.brightness + SCREENPAD_MIN_BRIGHTNESS;

And when reading the brightness substract SCREENPAD_MIN_BRIGHTNESS,
clamping to a minimum value of 0.

This avoids a dead-zone in the brightness range between 0-60 .

Regards,

Hans
