PATCH 1/1 misc,acpi,backlight: MSI S270 Laptop support, fifth try

From: Lennart Poettering <[email protected]>

A driver for the special features of MSI S270 laptops (and maybe other MSI laptops). This driver implements a backlight device for controlling LCD brightness (/sys/class/backlight/msi-laptop-bl/). In addition it allows access to the WLAN and Bluetooth states through a platform driver (/sys/devices/platform/msi-laptop-pf/).

Signed-off-by Lennart Poettering <[email protected]>

This is the fifth version of this driver. Changes to the previous version are mostly cosmetics: on request of Andrew Morton I replaced indentation with spaces by tabs (by passing it through "unexpand").

On request of Dmitry Torokhov I replaced
calls to platform_device_register_simple() by
platform_device_alloc()/platform_device_add().

Applies to Len Brown's current linux-acpi tree.

Len, please merge!

Thanks,
Lennart

This part is still spaces only. The help text should be indented by tab + 2 spaces.
