+Subject: [PATCH 11/14] backlight: Add backlight device (un)registration
+ notification
+
+Some firmware drivers, ie acpi-video want to get themselves out of the
+way (in some cases) when their also is a raw backlight device available.
+
+Due to module loading ordering being unknown, acpi-video cannot be certain
+that the backlight_device_registered(BACKLIGHT_RAW) it does for this is
+the final verdict wrt there being a BACKLIGHT_RAW device.
+
+By adding notification acpi-video can listen for backlight devices showing
+up after it has loaded, and unregister its backlight device if desired.
+
