Both adp8860 and adp8870 define some extensions to the backlight class. This causes warnings: Warning: /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/ambient_light_level is defined 2 times: /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/ambient_light_level:8 /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/ambient_light_level:30 Warning: /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/ambient_light_zone is defined 2 times: /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/ambient_light_zone:18 /sys/class/backlight/<backlight>/ambient_light_zone:40 As ABI definitions shouldn't be duplicated. Unfortunately, the ABI is dependent on the specific device features. As such, ambient_light_level range is somewhat different among the supported devices. The ambient_light_zone is even worse: the meanings of each preset are different, and there's no ABI to retrieve the supported types nor their meanins. Unfortunately, it is too late to fix it without causing regressions, as this has been used since Kernel v2.6.35. Rewrite those ABI documentation using the current documentation as a reference, and double-checking at the datasheets: https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/ADP8870.pdf https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/ADP8860.pdf in order to properly document the differences between those two drivers.

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.
