And ack: it should probably be renamed to something more reasonable.
Something like apple_bl?

Sure. Want to do a patch for that and Kconfig? It probably wants a
module alias line for backwards compatibility.

Why not? How should the module alias line look like?
MODULE_ALIAS("mbp_nvidia_bl");
Or prefixed with some subsystem identifier? I've never used it before.

Thanks & ciao,
Mario
