Keith Packard ca88479c1c drm/i915: Treat pre-gen4 backlight duty cycle value consistently 
For i945 and earlier chips, the backlight frequency value had the low
bit (of 16) fixed to zero. The Pineview code path handled this by just
exposing the backlight range as 15 bits while other chips had the
backlight range limited to 0 .. 0xfffe.

This patch makes everyone take the pineview code path, providing 15
bits of backlight duty cycle range which seems more than sufficient to
me.

Daniel Mack reported that writing 1 to bit 0 of the duty cycle
register was causing problems on his Samsung X20 notebook, even when
the duty cycle value was less than the maximum backlight value. (He
tried a value of 29749 with max_brightness of 29750). This patch never
writes a '1' to that bit.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
