/**
 * DOC: overview
 *
 * The backlight core supports implementing backlight drivers.
 *
 * A backlight driver registers a driver using
 * devm_backlight_device_register(). The properties of the backlight
 * driver such as type and max_brightness must be specified.
 * When the core detect changes in for example brightness or power state
 * the update_status() operation is called. The backlight driver shall
 * implement this operation and use it to adjust backlight.
 *
 * Several sysfs attributes are provided by the backlight core::
 *
 * - brightness         R/W, set the requested brightness level
 * - actual_brightness  RO, the brightness level used by the HW
 * - max_brightness     RO, the maximum  brightness level supported
 *
 * See Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-class-backlight for the full list.
 *
 * The backlight can be adjusted using the sysfs interface, and
 * the backlight driver may also support adjusting backlight using
 * a hot-key or some other platform or firmware specific way.
 *
 * The driver must implement the get_brightness() operation if
 * the HW do not support all the levels that can be specified in
 * brightness, thus providing user-space access to the actual level
 * via the actual_brightness attribute.
 *
 * When the backlight changes this is reported to user-space using
 * an uevent connected to the actual_brightness attribute.
 * When brightness is set by platform specific means, for example
 * a hot-key to adjust backlight, the driver must notify the backlight
 * core that brightness has changed using backlight_force_update().
 *
 * The backlight driver core receives notifications from fbdev and
 * if the event is FB_EVENT_BLANK and if the value of blank, from the
 * FBIOBLANK ioctrl, results in a change in the backlight state the
 * update_status() operation is called.
