Description David Binderman 2014-07-14 21:34:59 UTC 
[linux-3.16-rc5/drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c:6147]: (style) Checking if unsigned variable 'value' is less than zero.

static int brightness_set(unsigned int value)
{
    int res;

    if (value > bright_maxlvl || value < 0)
        return -EINVAL;

Suggest remove pointless code.
