From 4f7f96453b462b3de0fa18d18fe983960bb5ee7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans de Goede Date: Fri, 12 Jul 2019 12:00:33 +0200 Subject: ACPI: video: Add new hw_changes_brightness quirk, set it on PB Easynote MZ35 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Some machines change the brightness themselves when a brightness hotkey gets pressed, despite us telling them not to. This causes the brightness to go two steps up / down when the hotkey is pressed. This is esp. a problem on older machines with only a few brightness levels. This commit adds a new hw_changes_brightness quirk which makes acpi_video_device_notify() only call backlight_force_update(..., BACKLIGHT_UPDATE_HOTKEY) and not do anything else, notifying userspace that the brightness was changed and leaving it at that fixing the dual step problem.
