So given that I'm utterly lacking clue about all things of (which seems to
be where all the magic in this patch lies) I'm just gonna ask a few funny
questions.

Why do we need to jump through the intermediate videomode thing here? Is
that a deficiency of the of/videomode stuff?

Shouldn't these values all be documented somewhere in the devictree docs?
Or are they somewhat standardized?

If this _really_ works that easily, I'll have of-envy for the rest of my
life :(

/me hates the real-world abomination called Intel backlight handling
