Subject: [46/83] ACPI video: ignore BIOS initial backlight value for HP 1000

3.2.47-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

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

commit 4ef366c583d6180b1c951147869ee5a3038834f2 upstream.

On HP 1000 lapops, BIOS reports minimum backlight on boot and
causes backlight to dim completely. This ignores the initial backlight
values and set to max brightness.
