Apologies for being too vague. To be as precise I can be, here is the
specific code delta I tested: https://crrev.com/c/2406616 . To answer
your other question, the code I tested against is indeed including the
fde7266fb2f6 (despite ostensibly being called 5.4 in my commit
message): our current top-of-tree for our 5.4 branch includes the
intel_dp_aux_calc_max_backlight logic. Further, I'll note that change
is exactly the change which breaks my Pixelbook model: prior to the
change, the max_brightness was hard-coded to 0xFFFF and the math
worked out that it didn't matter that the hardware cared about the MSB
despite the driver code caring about the LSB.

To answer Ville's question: the fde7266fb2f6 change which fixes one
laptop (I believe Thinkpad X1 extreme Gen 2, from some bug reports I
dug up) and breaks another (Pixelbook); so unfortunately I believe we
need a quirk at least for some laptop. Reading through the copy of the
datasheet I have, it wasn't clear to me which was the correct
interpretation. I'm cc'ing puthik@, who was leaning toward the current
kernel code (caring about LSB) being the correct interpretation. I
believe we have other chromebooks which do rely on LSB functionality,
so unless we can find more examples of laptops wanting MSB it
currently looks like Pixelbook is the outlier.
