+The ('name') argument is the name of the device that appears in /proc

 This function will register three callbacks into your driver:

 indicate that you do not want a callback.

 This feature allows software control of the LCD brightness on ThinkPad

-It has some limitations: the LCD backlight cannot be actually turned on or off

-functionality will be enabled by the BIOS when this interface is used, and
-cannot be controlled.
-
-The backlight control has eight levels, ranging from 0 to 7.  Some of the
-levels may not be distinct.
-
-There are two interfaces to the firmware for brightness control, EC and CMOS.
-To select which one should be used, use the brightness_mode module parameter:
-brightness_mode=1 selects EC mode, brightness_mode=2 selects CMOS mode,
-brightness_mode=3 selects both EC and CMOS.  The driver tries to autodetect

+When display backlight brightness controls are available through the
+standard ACPI interface, it is best to use it instead of this direct
+ThinkPad-specific interface.  The driver will disable its native
+backlight brightness control interface if it detects that the standard
+ACPI interface is available in the ThinkPad.

+The brightness_enable module parameter can be used to control whether
