[KERNEL][JB][JSS15J / JWR66V] Semaphore N4 1.7.6

1.7.6 (04/11/2013)
- Linux kernel 3.4.68
- touchwake: Fix issue when disabling driver during screen off and wakelock was active (thanks @ihancioglu for his report)
- ondemand: a small cleanup in code (thanks @jugster)



1.7.4 (23/10/2013)
- Linux kernel 3.4.67
- Fix logger loading issue in some custom ROMs
- ondemand: A small optimization in input event (thanks to skkip)


1.7.1 (03/10/2013)
- Linux kernel 3.4.64
- mach-msm: dyn_hotplug: On early suspend use min_online value of 1 (make use of C3 power state on CPU0 when the screen is off)
- mach-msm: dyn_hotplug: Use cpumask_next_zero to find the next offline CPU (thanks to Skkip)
- Possible fix from CAF for a cpuidle bug
- video: lm3530_bl: Introduce new tunables to control LED driver (LCD backlight)
lm3530_min_br: sets the minimum brightness level (2-114)
lm3530_max_br: sets the maximum brightness level (2-114)
lm3530_br_mode: sets the linear (default 1) or exponential (0) brightness mapping mode.
The sysfs path is /sys/devices/i2c-0/0-0038/
Please note that the exponential brightness mode uses a very low LCD brightness on a low external light. You may need to increase the min_br for better results.
