Subject[PATCH] platform: add support for samsung nc210/nc110
Date
From: Jason Stubbs <jasonbstubbs@gmail.com>

Note, I don't expect this patch to go in and would actually just like some
feedback on how to better handle the set_brightness problem. Note also that
this patch won't apply on top of my brightness min/max fixes patch and I'll
redo this one as necessary.

This patch adds support for the NC210/NC110 to the samsung-laptop driver.

All SABI commands except for set_brightness work as expected. The behaviour
of set_brightness is as follows:

- Setting a new brightness will only step one level toward the new brightness
level. For example, setting a level of 5 when the current level is 2 will
result in a brightness level of 3.
- A spurious KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP or KEY_BRIGHTNESS_DOWN event is also generated
along with the change in brightness.
- Neither of the above two issues occur when changing from/to brightness level 0.

The changes in set_brightness() work around the above while attempting to
minimize flicker due to jumping to and from brightness level 0.
