Subject: [PATCH 3.10 191/268] ACPI / video: skip evaluating _DOD when it does not exist

From: Alex Hung <alex.hung@...onical.com>

commit e34fbbac669de0b7fb7803929d0477f35f6e2833 upstream.

Some system supports hybrid graphics and its discrete VGA
does not have any connectors and therefore has no _DOD method.
