Which laptops is this intended to support?

Henrique, I'm holding off a bit more to give you time to respond given the
holiday season.

Thanks,

Thanks, we should include that in the commit message as well as the comments
surrounding the driver section.

Henrique, are your concerns surrounding suspend/resume resolved?

??30 is probably not good characteristic, but I mean all those Thinkpad 
laptops like T430, x230, E430, X1 (1st) and their successors (T440, 
T450, X1 3rd, ...) All those which are from Ivy Bridge processor 
generation (and new).

But basically it cover all Thinkpad laptops which have backlight 
keyboard. Older Thinkpad laptops had only light in bezel.

So if you have better idea for commit message, feel free to change it.

Ah, I see. New feature that didn't exist previously. OK, no need for changes on
that score then.
