This is a follow-up for commit 78a7539b, which didn't cover the
Samsung N220 laptop. With this backlight brightness works nicely
on the N220 netbook.

This patch just adds the DMI info for the samsung laptop driver to work with
the NC210/NC110. It needs the brightness quirk patch for proper support.

On some Samsung laptops the brightness regulation works slightly different.
All SABI commands except for set_brightness work as expected. The behaviour
of set_brightness is as follows:
- Setting a new brightness will only step one level toward the new brightness
level. For example, setting a level of 5 when the current level is 2 will
result in a brightness level of 3.
- A spurious KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP or KEY_BRIGHTNESS_DOWN event is also generated
along with the change in brightness.
- Neither of the above two issues occur when changing from/to brightness
level 0.
This patch adds detection and a non-intrusive workaround for the above issues.

samsung_init() should not return success if not all devices are initialized.
Otherwise, samsung_exit() will dereference sdev NULL pointers and others.

The min_brightness value of the sabi_config is incorrectly used in brightness
calculations. For the config where min_brightness = 1 and max_brightness = 8,
the user visible range should be 0 to 7 with hardware being set in the range
of 1 to 8. What is actually happening is that the user visible range is 0 to
8 with hardware being set in the range of -1 to 7.
This patch fixes the above issue as well as a miscalculation that would occur
in the case of min_brightness > 1.

Some samsung latop of the N150/N2{10,20,30} serie are badly detected by the samsung-laptop platform driver, see bug # 36082.
It appears that N230 identifies itself as N150/N210/N220/N230 whereas the other identify themselves as N150/N210/220.
This patch attemtp fix#36082 allowing correct identification for all the said netbook model.

dmi_check_system() walks the table running matching functions until
someone returns non zero or we hit the end.
This patch makes dmi_check_cb to return 1 so dmi_check_system() return
immediately when a match is found.
