Hi Luke,

Thank you for the updated patch.

This should be:

bd->props.brightness = brightness - ASUS_SCREENPAD_BRIGHT_MIN;

Since this is the value exported to userspace which is down-shited
by ASUS_SCREENPAD_BRIGHT_MIN to start at 0.

I have fixed this up while merging this:

Thank you for your patch, I've applied this patch to my review-hans
branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans

Note it will show up in my review-hans branch once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be
added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually
will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next
merge-window.

Regards,

Hans
