These patches fix video issues on Dell Latitude E6410. Reported in bugs

http://launchpad.net/bugs/578673
http://launchpad.net/bugs/561802

The patches apply cleanly to 2.6.33.y (see attachments), and they were 
tested against the latest Lucid kernel and reported to fix the 2 issues. 
Kernel was tested by user community, as well as, on hardware available at 
Canonical.

Regarding the issue with dim back-light on resume, Jesse wrote to me saying 
he suspects some other agent like firmware might be a suspect in zeroing 
it out before the driver saves it, ie driver seems to do the right thing.

Regards
Manoj Iyer

I'm Ack-ing the first two patches and Nak-ing the third. I'm not sure
stable upstream will take the third and it will be a thorn in our side
if only we are carrying it.

Patch

From c2c8974fa36741068d0a7c178dd8eb64dd3d1a0f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>
Date: Thu, 22 Jul 2010 13:18:18 -0700
Subject: [PATCH 3/3] drm/i915: add PANEL_UNLOCK_REGS definition

In some cases, unlocking the panel regs is safe and can help us avoid a
flickery, full mode set sequence.  So define the unlock key and use it.
