Merge tag 'platform-drivers-x86-v3.19-2' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dvhart/linux-platform-drivers-x86
Pull platform driver fix from Darren Hart: "Revert keyboard backlight sysfs support and documentation. The support for the dell-laptop keyboard backlight was flawed and the fix: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/14/539 was more invasive that I felt comfortable sending at RC5. This series reverts the support for the dell-laptop keyboard backlight as well as the documentation for the newly created sysfs attributes. We'll get this implemented correctly for 3.20" * tag 'platform-drivers-x86-v3.19-2' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dvhart/linux-platform-drivers-x86: Revert "platform: x86: dell-laptop: Add support for keyboard backlight" Revert "Documentation: Add entry for dell-laptop sysfs interface"

-What: /sys/class/leds/dell::kbd_backlight/start_triggers
-Date: December 2014
-KernelVersion: 3.19
-Contact: Gabriele Mazzotta <gabriele.mzt@gmail.com>,
- Pali Rohár <pali.rohar@gmail.com>
-Description:
- This file allows to control the input triggers that
- turn on the keyboard backlight illumination that is
- disabled because of inactivity.
- Read the file to see the triggers available. The ones
- enabled are preceded by '+', those disabled by '-'.
-
- To enable a trigger, write its name preceded by '+' to
- this file. To disable a trigger, write its name preceded
- by '-' instead.
-
- For example, to enable the keyboard as trigger run:
- echo +keyboard > /sys/class/leds/dell::kbd_backlight/start_triggers
- To disable it:
- echo -keyboard > /sys/class/leds/dell::kbd_backlight/start_triggers
-
- Note that not all the available triggers can be configured.

-What: /sys/class/leds/dell::kbd_backlight/stop_timeout
-Date: December 2014
-KernelVersion: 3.19
-Contact: Gabriele Mazzotta <gabriele.mzt@gmail.com>,
- Pali Rohár <pali.rohar@gmail.com>
-Description:
- This file allows to specify the interval after which the
- keyboard illumination is disabled because of inactivity.
- The timeouts are expressed in seconds, minutes, hours and
- days, for which the symbols are 's', 'm', 'h' and 'd'
- respectively.
-
- To configure the timeout, write to this file a value along
- with any the above units. If no unit is specified, the value
- is assumed to be expressed in seconds.
-
- For example, to set the timeout to 10 minutes run:
- echo 10m > /sys/class/leds/dell::kbd_backlight/stop_timeout
-
- Note that when this file is read, the returned value might be
- expressed in a different unit than the one used when the timeout
- was set.
-
- Also note that only some timeouts are supported and that
- some systems might fall back to a specific timeout in case
- an invalid timeout is written to this file.
