Staging: samsung-laptop: fix brightness level and add new device ids

Browse source

The patch is against the 2.6.37 drivers/staging/samsung-laptop
driver and implements some extra enhancements.

It fixes an issue that the brightness would not change the level at
once as well as and some other oddities. It was resolved by
reallocated the SABI memory reagion using the "nocache" option.

The patch also introduces a new set of supported netbook models,
especially the NC10plus which was used for testing this patch. This new
set of models also offer 9 instead of just 8 brightness levels so it
also introduces an additional parameter for the models struct so that
models can define their own brightness range.
