Hi Hans,
With 3.17-rc1, I had to drop the following patches:
asus-wmi-Add-a-no-backlight-quirk.patch
This one seems to have been solved in a different manner upstream with commit d8c66f62992dac3a92cbc5f16791557100c7a068.
eeepc-wmi-Add-no-backlight-quirk-for-Asus-H87I-PLUS-.patch
This one depends on the no_backlight field added to the quirk struct in the previous patch.
Both of them were marked as "Sent for 3.16" and that obviously didn't wind up happening, so I've dropped them for now. The eeepc change looks to be the only one that is really of concern, but there's no clear solution there to me. If you have an alternative patch for it, let me know.

Both were fixed for 3.17 in an alternative way. So dropping them is the right thing to do.
Thanks for the heads-up.
