Linus Torvalds 797de7bdb2 Revert "ACPI: Ignore _BQC object when registering backlight device"
This reverts commit 7c0ea45be4 which
caused a regression with the backlight being set to off when a laptop
doesn't have a _BQC entry to query the actual backlight value.  The code
blindly then falls back on a value of 0.

See

Ingo Molnar 48d3d8263c revert "ACPI: drivers/acpi: elide a non-zero test on a result that is never 0"
Revert commit 1192aeb957 ("ACPI:
drivers/acpi: elide a non-zero test on a result that is never 0")
because it turns out that thermal_cooling_device_register() does
actually return NULL if CONFIG_THERMAL is turned off (then the routine
turns into a dummy inline routine in the header files that returns NULL
unconditionally).

This was found with randconfig testing, causing a crash during bootup:

The function thermal_cooling_device_register always returns either a valid

we can't provide that information to userspace, instead collapse the
range to the number of actual values that can be set.

Zhang Rui a21101c46c ACPI: video: _DOS=0 by default to prevent hotkey hang
In the past, the Linux/ACPI video driver invoked _DOS
(Display Output Switch) with the parameter 1
to tell the BIOS to switch the video output display for us.

But this conflicts with Linux native graphics drivers,
and can cause all sorts of issues, including hanging the system.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6001

Here we change the Linux default to evaluate _DOS=0,
which tells the BIOS to simply send us a hotkey event
and not touch the graphics hardware.

The acpi video driver sends the display switch hotkey
event up through the intput layer, and X can interpret
that and use its native graphics driver to switch the display.

For the case where Linux has no native graphics driver running,
or the graphics driver doesn't know how to switch video and
the BIOS (safely) does, the previous behaviour can be restored with:

# echo 1 > /proc/acpi/video/*/DOS

Richard Purdie 655bfd7aeb backlight: Convert from struct class_device to struct device
Convert the backlight and LCD classes from struct class_device
to struct device since class_device is scheduled for removal.

One nasty API break is the backlight power attribute has had to be
renamed to bl_power and the LCD power attribute has had to be renamed
to lcd_power since the original names clash with the core. I can't see
a way around this.

Danny Kukawka f70ac0e965 ACPI video: Don't export sysfs backlight interface if query _BCL fail
Currently the acpi video module export the backlight interface to sysfs
also if acpi_video_device_lcd_query_levels() fails to read _BLC method
(e.g.  because the method is not available).  In this case the userspace
don't know which brightness level are supported and can't set a brightness
level (echo return with: "write error: Invalid Argument").  This happend
e.g.  on a ASUS RF1 (correct supported by the asus-laptop module).

The video module should not export the backlight interface if query _BLC fail,
because you can't set anything from userspace and this make it useless.

Luming Yu 23b0f015bf ACPI: video: output switch sysfs support
Requires CONFIG_VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL and CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO.

After loading output.ko and video.ko, you would have
/sys/class/video_output and several device acpi_videoNum there.

For example, I got acpi_video0, acpi_video1,acpi_video2,and acpi_video3
under /sys/class/video_output on my T40.
I can query the status of  output device0 by running " cat
/sys/class/video_output/acpi_video0
" The return value is defined in ACPI SPEC B.5.5 _DCS(Return the
Status of Output Device).  Also you can turn off video1 and turn on
video0  by " echo 0 > acpi_video1; echo 0x80000000 > acpi_video0".
Please reference ACPI SPEC  B.5.7 _DSS for the parameter definition.

Please note that it may or may NOT works purely depending on if
your vendor providing correct ACPI video extension support in bios.
the driver output.ko and video.ko just works like a interface to
invoke BIOS.

Richard Purdie 599a52d126 backlight: Separate backlight properties from backlight ops pointers
Per device data such as brightness belongs to the indivdual device
and should therefore be separate from the the backlight operation
function pointers. This patch splits the two types of data and
allows simplifcation of some code.

Richard Purdie dfcba20067 backlight: Remove unneeded owner field
Remove uneeded owner field from backlight_properties structure.

Nothing uses it and it is unlikely that it will ever be used. The
backlight class uses other means to ensure that nothing references
unloaded code.

Len Brown c2b6705b75 ACPI: fix acpi_driver.name usage
It was erroneously used as a description rather than a name.

ie. turn this:

ACPI AC Adapter Driver  ACPI Embedded Controller Driver  ACPI Power Resource Driver
ACPI Battery Driver     ACPI Fan Driver                  ACPI Processor Driver
ACPI Button Driver      ACPI PCI Interrupt Link Driver   ACPI Thermal Zone Driver
ACPI container driver   ACPI PCI Root Bridge Driver      hpet
