+sysfs interface for analog devices adp8860 backlight driver
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+The backlight brightness control operates at three different levels for the
+adp8860, adp8861 and adp8863 devices: daylight (level 1), office (level 2) and
+dark (level 3). By default the brightness operates at the daylight brightness
+level.

+Description:
+               (RO) 13-bit conversion value for the first light sensor—high
+               byte (Bit 12 to Bit 8). The value is updated every 80 ms (when
+               the light sensor is enabled).

+Description:
+               (RW) Read or write the specific level at which the backlight
+               operates. Value "0" enables automatic ambient light sensing, and
+               values "1", "2" or "3" set the control to daylight, office or
+               dark respectively.

+Description:

+               is at one of the three levels (daylight, office or dark). This
+               is an input code between 0 and 127, which is transformed to a
