Can you try adding a printk() in evergreen_asic_reset() and see if it is somehow getting called when you change the brightness? When you use the apci backlight control, the radeon driver is not involved at all. They only way the driver would get involved is if the acpi backlight control somehow caused the GPU to hang and then the driver detected the hang and attempted to reset the GPU. I don't see any evidence of a GPU reset in your kernel log however. Note that the driver also registers native backlight contol. Does that work any better than acpi?
