Subject: [PATCH 5.15 53/98] ACPI: video: Change how we determine if brightness key-presses are handled

From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@...hat.com>

commit 3a0cf7ab8df3878a7e2f3d29275b785cf4e7afb6 upstream.

Some systems have an ACPI video bus but not ACPI video devices with
backlight capability. On these devices brightness key-presses are
(logically) not reported through the ACPI video bus.

Change how acpi_video_handles_brightness_key_presses() determines if
brightness key-presses are handled by the ACPI video driver to avoid
vendor specific drivers/platform/x86 drivers filtering out their
brightness key-presses even though they are the only ones reporting
these presses.

Fixes: ed83c9171829 ("platform/x86: panasonic-laptop: Resolve hotkey double trigger bug")
