2023-03-16backlight: apple_bl: Use acpi_video_get_backlight_type()Hans de Goede
On some MacBooks both the apple_bl and the apple-gmux backlight drivers may be able to export a /sys/class/backlight device. To avoid having 2 backlight devices for one LCD panel until now the apple-gmux driver has been calling apple_bl_unregister() to move the apple_bl backlight device out of the way when it loads. Similar problems exist on other x86 laptops and all backlight drivers which may be used on x86 laptops have moved to using acpi_video_get_backlight_type() to determine whether they should load or not. Switch apple_bl to this model too, so that it is consistent with all the other x86 backlight drivers. Besides code-simplification and consistency this has 2 other benefits: 1) It removes a race during boot where userspace will briefly see an apple_bl backlight and then have it disappear again, leading to e.g.: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=269920 2) This allows user to switch between the drivers by passing acpi_backlight=apple_gmux or acpi_backlight=vendor on the kernel commandline.

2022-11-23ACPI: make remove callback of ACPI driver voidDawei Li
For bus-based driver, device removal is implemented as: 1 device_remove()-> 2 bus->remove()-> 3 driver->remove() Driver core needs no inform from callee(bus driver) about the result of remove callback. In that case, commit fc7a6209d571 ("bus: Make remove callback return void") forces bus_type::remove be void-returned. Now we have the situation that both 1 & 2 of calling chain are void-returned, so it does not make much sense for 3(driver->remove) to return non-void to its caller. So the basic idea behind this change is making remove() callback of any bus-based driver to be void-returned. This change, for itself, is for device drivers based on acpi-bus.

2017-12-20backlight: apple_bl: Deprecate pci_get_bus_and_slot()Sinan Kaya
pci_get_bus_and_slot() is restrictive such that it assumes domain=0 as where a PCI device is present. This restricts the device drivers to be reused for other domain numbers. Getting ready to remove pci_get_bus_and_slot() function in favor of pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot(). Hard-coding the domain as 0.

2013-01-26ACPI: Remove useless type argument of driver .remove() operationRafael J. Wysocki
The second argument of ACPI driver .remove() operation is only used by the ACPI processor driver and the value passed to that driver through it is always available from the given struct acpi_device object's removal_type field. For this reason, the second ACPI driver .remove() argument is in fact useless, so drop it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
