Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: dell-laptop: Fix bogus keyboard backlight sysfs interface

Dell Latitude 3160 does not have keyboard backlight, but there is a
sysfs interface for it, which does nothing at all.

KBD_LED_OFF_TOKEN is the only token can be found. Since it doesn't have
KBD_LED_ON_TOKEN or KBD_LED_AUTO_*_TOKEN, it should be safe to assume it
does not support keyboard backlight.

Reports keyboard backlight is supported only when tokens other than
KBD_LED_OFF_TOKEN can be found.
