+Subject: sony-laptop: Enable keyboard backlight by default
+
+From: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@redhat.com>
+
+commit 6fe6ae56a7cebaebc2e6daa11c423e4692f9b592 upstream.
+
+When the keyboard backlight support was originally added, the commit said
+to default it to on with a 10 second timeout.  That actually wasn't the
+case, as the default value is commented out for the kbd_backlight parameter.
+Because it is a static variable, it gets set to 0 by default without some
+other form of initialization.
+
+However, it seems the function to set the value wasn't actually called
+immediately, so whatever state the keyboard was in initially would remain.
+Then commit df410d522410e67660 was introduced during the 2.6.39 timeframe to
+immediately set whatever value was present (as well as attempt to
+restore/reset the state on module removal or resume).  That seems to have
+now forced the light off immediately when the module is loaded unless
+the option kbd_backlight=1 is specified.
+
+Let's enable it by default again (for the first time).  This should solve
