From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jul 07 2014 - 20:06:59 EST


3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alex Hung <alex.hung@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4ef366c583d6180b1c951147869ee5a3038834f2 upstream.

On HP 1000 lapops, BIOS reports minimum backlight on boot and
causes backlight to dim completely. This ignores the initial backlight
values and set to max brightness.
