If an ACPI graphics device supports backlight brightness functions (cmp. with
latest ACPI spec Appendix B), let the ACPI video driver control backlight and
switch backlight control off in vendor specific ACPI drivers (asus_acpi,
thinkpad_acpi, eeepc, fujitsu_laptop, msi_laptop, sony_laptop, acer-wmi).
Currently it is possible to load above drivers and let both poke on the
brightness HW registers, the video and vendor specific ACPI drivers -> bad.
This patch provides the basic support to check for BIOS capabilities before
driver loading time. Driver specific modifications are in separate follow up
patches.
"acpi_backlight=vendor"
Prever vendor driver over ACPI driver for backlight.
"acpi_backlight=video" (default)
Prever ACPI driver over vendor driver for backlight.

This is a reimplemention of commit
0119509c4f
from Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org>
This patch got removed because of a regression: ThinkPads with a
Intel graphics card and an Integrated Graphics Device BIOS implementation
stopped working.
In fact, they only worked because the ACPI device of the discrete, the
wrong one, got used (via int10). So ACPI functions were poking on the wrong
hardware used which is a sever bug.
The next patch provides support for above ThinkPads to be able to
switch brightness via the legacy thinkpad_acpi driver and automatically
detect when to use it.
Original commit message from Matthew Garrett:
Vendors often ship machines with a choice of integrated or discrete
graphics, and use the same DSDT for both. As a result, the ACPI video
module will locate devices that may not exist on this specific platform.
Attempt to determine whether the device exists or not, and abort the
device creation if it doesn't.

According to acpi spec , the objectes of _BCL and _BCM are required if
integrated LCD is present and supports brightness level and the _BQC is
the optional object. So the _BQC object will be ignored when the backlight
device is registered.
At the same time when there is no _BQC object, the current brightness will be
set to the maximum.

In the past, the Linux/ACPI video driver invoked _DOS
(Display Output Switch) with the parameter 1
to tell the BIOS to switch the video output display for us.
But this conflicts with Linux native graphics drivers,
and can cause all sorts of issues, including hanging the system.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6001
Here we change the Linux default to evaluate _DOS=0,
which tells the BIOS to simply send us a hotkey event
and not touch the graphics hardware.
The acpi video driver sends the display switch hotkey
event up through the intput layer, and X can interpret
that and use its native graphics driver to switch the display.
For the case where Linux has no native graphics driver running,
or the graphics driver doesn't know how to switch video and
the BIOS (safely) does, the previous behaviour can be restored with:
# echo 1 > /proc/acpi/video/*/DOS
