+Subject: [PATCH] samsung-laptop: Add use_native_backlight quirk, and enable it
+ on some models
+
+Since kernel 3.14 the backlight control has been broken on various Samsung
+Atom based netbooks. This has been bisected and this problem happens since
+commit b35684b8fa94 ("drm/i915: do full backlight setup at enable time")
+
+This has been reported and discussed in detail here:
+http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2014-July/049395.html
+
+Unfortunately no-one has been able to fix this. This only affects Samsung
+Atom netbooks, and the Linux kernel and the BIOS of those laptops have never
+worked well together. All affected laptops already have a quirk to avoid using
+the standard acpi-video interface and instead use the samsung specific SABI
+interface which samsung-laptop uses. It seems that recent fixes to the i915
+driver have also broken backlight control through the SABI interface.
+
+The intel_backlight driver OTOH works fine, and also allows for finer grained
+backlight control. So add a new use_native_backlight quirk, and replace the
+broken_acpi_video quirk with this quirk for affected models. This new quirk
+disables acpi-video as before and also stops samsung-laptop from registering
+the SABI based samsung_laptop backlight interface, leaving only the working
+intel_backlight interface.
+
+This commit enables this new quirk for 3 models which are known to be affected,
+chances are that it needs to be used on other models too.
