commit 5481115e25e42b9215f2619452aa99c95f08492f upstream. On a Thinkpad s30 (Pentium III / i440MX, Lynx3DM), rebooting with sm712fb framebuffer driver would cause the role of brightness up/down button to swap. Experiments showed the FPR30 register caused this behavior. Moreover, even if this register don't have side-effect on other systems, over- writing it is also highly questionable, since it was originally configurated by the motherboard manufacturer by hardwiring pull-down resistors to indicate the type of LCD panel. We should not mess with it. Stop writing to the SR30 (a.k.a FPR30) register.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
