Subject: [PATCH 01/22] drm/i915/opregion: Improve backlight request condition
asle_set_backlight() needs to accept backlight request only if the
firmware controls the backlight. It used the following expression for
this purpose:
acpi_video_get_backlight_type() == acpi_backlight_native
This expression works well in practice, but has two semantic problems.
One is that it actually determines if a backlight device which directly
modifies hardware registers ("native backlight") exists. It is possible
that a device which does not have backlight at all incorrectly triggers
asle_set_backlight(), and the expression does not cover such a case.
Another problem is that acpi_video_get_backlight_type() always return
acpi_backlight_vendor in reality if CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO is unset. It
means even its ability to determine the existence of native backlight is
somewhat limited.
This change introduces a new function backlight_device_non_raw_exists(),
which returns if the firmware is controlling the backlight, and is
always available if backlight support is enabled.
