[PATCH] video: mbp_nvidia_bl: Fix brightness after suspend/hibernation

From: Mario Schwalbe
Date: Wed Dec 10 2008 - 16:01:40 EST


The mbp_nvidia_bl driver allows to change the display brightness on
Apple MacBook Pro with Nvidia graphics adapters. However, after
resuming from suspend the brightness is at its maximum instead of
the last recently used value. This patch converts the driver into a
platform_driver in order to register a resume hook to re-send brightness.
In addition, resources will be allocated through platform_driver means
instead of calling request_region/release_region directly.

A patch incorporating MacBook 5 MacBook Air 2, and MacBook Pro 5
support is also available and will be sent next.
