Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Documentation: leds: standardise keyboard backlight led
names
From: Orlando Chamberlain <orlandoch.dev@...il.com>
Advice use of either "input*:*:kbd_backlight" or ":*:kbd_backlight". We
don't want people using vendor or product name (e.g. "smc", "apple",
"asus") as this information is available from sysfs anyway, and it made the
folder names inconsistent.
