Subject[PATCH v2 2/4] platform/x86: fujitsu-laptop: do not use call_fext_func() for LCD blanking
Date
fujitsu-laptop registers two ACPI drivers: one for ACPI device FUJ02B1
enabling backlight control and another for ACPI device FUJ02E3 which
handles various other stuff (hotkeys, LEDs, etc.) Sadly, one of the
functions exposed by call_fext_func() (i.e. through FUJ02E3) allows
probing and controlling LCD blanking (which is a backlight-related
feature that should logically be handled by FUJ02B1) and thus entangles
these two ACPI drivers, which is ugly.

Reverse engineering the DSDT table of a Lifebook S7020 shows that
current LCD blanking state can be:

- read from ACPI variable BLCT (0: LCD on, 1: LCD off),
- set using ACPI method SBLC belonging to ACPI device FUJ02E3.

Based on this information, reimplement LCD blanking without using
call_fext_func():

- read backlight power from BLCT in fujitsu_backlight_register(),
- grab a handle to SBLC in fujitsu_backlight_register() and then use
it for setting backlight power in bl_update_status().

Apart from untangling the two ACPI drivers, this also prevents bogus
"Unable to adjust backlight power" messages from appearing on machines
which do not support LCD blanking through FUJ02E3.

Finally, this change eliminates the need to define and use
FUNC_BACKLIGHT, so remove it.

Jonathan, this *really* needs testing on relevant hardware. After
applying this patch, you should be able to turn LCD backlight on and off
using /sys/class/backlight/fujitsu-laptop/bl_power. Also, the value
returned by that attribute upon read should be in sync with actual
backlight state even right after loading the module (i.e. before writing
anything to bl_power). Please let me know if any of the above is not
true and the module works correctly without this patch applied.
