Subject: [V5 PATCH 3/4] drivers-gpu-drm-i915-panel-invert-brightness-via-quirk.patch
Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2012 15:56:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120315145828.898778929@osadl.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20120315145623.486070468@osadl.org

[-- Attachment #1: drivers-gpu-drm-i915-panel-invert-brightness-via-quirk.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4307 bytes --]

A machine may need to invert the panel backlight brightness value. This
patch adds the infrastructure for a quirk to do so.
