+Subject: [PATCH 0767/2940] Revert "drm/amd/display: set backlight level limit
+ to 1"
+
+This reverts commit 0cafc82fae41531b0162150f9a97f2c74f97118f.
+
+This breaks some apps that assume 0 is minimum brightness.
+
+Revert for 4.20. This is fixed properly for drm-next/4.21 in:
+"drm/amd: Don't fail on backlight = 0"
+However, that patch depends on more extensive changes to the
+backlight interface which are too invasive for -fixes.
+
+Fixes: Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/108668
