Apologies for my delayed response, I've been OOO a while.

An earlier version of this series I had asked if this could be tested 
specifically with panel_power_savings enabled to ensure we're not 
causing a regression with such a low minimum and panel power savings 
turned up to the maximum.  If such a dependency does exist, I believe 
panel power savings will need to get an extra check introduced to 
disable it when the brightness falls below the previous threshold that 
was programmed by the firmware.

Did that ever get checked?

As far as I can tell this series doesn't apply any quirks to Framework 
16.  So by testing, do you mean that you tested that it didn't cause 
regressions (which it shouldn't; the panels don't match!).
