[PATCH v3 1/2] platform/x86: uniwill-laptop: Fix brightness notify for 3 level keyboards
From: Werner Sembach
Date: Fri Aug 21 2026 - 20:30:37 EST
The devices with 3 brightness level keyboards send
UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL0, UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL2, and
UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL4 and not UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL0,
UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL1, and UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL2.
This patch maps the events correctly to brightness levels 0, 1, and 2.
Signed-off-by: Werner Sembach <wse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

V1->V2: Use the events as source of truth for brightness_hw_changed value
again to avoid a race condition as Armin had pointed out.
V2->V3: Return error for unexpected brightness level count.
