The "wmaa" in the name of the wmaa-backlight-wmi driver was named after the ACPI method handle for EC-based backlight control on the systems this driver was tested on during development. However, this "WMAA" handle is generated by the WMI compilation process, and isn't actually a part of the backlight control mechanism which this driver supports. Since the "WMAA" handle isn't actually a part of the firmware backlight interface, the various identifiers in this driver using "WMAA" or "wmaa" aren't actually appropriate. As a common denominator across the systems supported by this driver is that they are hybrid graphics systems with NVIDIA GPUs, using "nvidia" in the driver name seems more appropriate than "wmaa". Update the driver to remove "wmaa" and "WMAA" in identifier names where they appear. The kerneldoc comments for the enum wmi_brightness_method values are replaced with the verbatim text from the decompiled BMF code for this WMI class.

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.
