Public bug reported:

Attached is a patch to add light_scale device file for applesmc to allow
light sensor readings to be scaled by userspace before HAL reads them
etc - this should allow to compensate for machines which report low
light sensor values in general such as the MBP 5,1 - see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/285815/comments/9 for
general discussion
