Subject: [PATCH 2/2] acer-wmi: add Acer Aspire 5750G to video vendor list but keep acpi video driver

From: Lee, Chun-Yi <[email protected]>

After Andrzej's testing, we found the acpi backlight methods broken on Acer
Aspire 5750G but the i915 backlight control works when we set to vendor mode.
And, we still want to keep the acpi/video driver for transfer acpi event to key
event but not unregister whole acpi/video driver.

This patch introduced a new capability flag is ACER_CAP_KEEP_VIDEO_KEY, it
indicates the machine works fine with acpi/video driver for key event but want
to unregister the backlight interface of acpi/video.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] acpi: video: add function to support unregister backlight

From: "Lee, Chun-Yi" <[email protected]>

There have situation we unregister whole acpi/video driver by downstream driver
just want to remove backlight control interface of acpi/video. It caues we lost
other functions of acpi/video, e.g. transfer acpi event to input event.

So, this patch add a new function, find_video_unregister_backlight, it provide
the interface let downstream driver can tell acpi/video to unregister backlight
interface of all acpi video devices. Then we can keep functions of acpi/video
but only remove backlight support.

Huh?

"Keeping acpi video driver active to emit backlight brightness change
key events"?

Gratuitous initialization of local variables prevents compiler from
warning when you using variable uninitialized.

Locking? It looks like the rest of the driver ignores locking too...

The cooling_dev should also be unregistered I think.

Yes, I agreed should not put gratuitous initialization, I will remove it

Did you mean locking video_device_list?

The acpi/video locks video_device_list when add, remove and notify acpi
video bus driver. It always do the mutex lock before control
video_device_list, so I also add lock when unregister all backlight of
devices.


Thanks a lot!

Yes, this statement is more fluent, I will put to v2 patch.

Yes, you are right!

Unregistering backlight interface of video devices means the backlight
control functions broken, so it can not used for throttling.

I will unregister cooling_dev in v2 patch.


Thanks a lot!
