Commit20f85ef89d("drm/i915/backlight: use unique backlight device names") added support for multiple backlight devices on dual panel systems, but did so with error handling on -EEXIST from backlight_device_register(). Unfortunately, that triggered a warning in dmesg all the way down from sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() and sysfs_warn_dup(). Instead of optimistically always attempting to register with the default name ("intel_backlight", which we have to retain for backward compatibility), check if a backlight device with the name exists first, and, if so, use the card and connector based name. v2: reworked on top of the patch commit20f85ef89d("drm/i915/backlight: use unique backlight device names") v3: fixed the ref count leak(Jani N) Fixes:20f85ef89d("drm/i915/backlight: use unique backlight device names") Signed-off-by: Arun R Murthy <arun.r.murthy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20220808035750.3111046-1-arun.r.murthy@intel.com (cherry picked from commit4234ea3005) Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
