From: Matthew Garrett <matthew.garrett@xxxxxxxxxx> We have to call acpi_video_init_brightness() even if we're not going to initialise the backlight - Thinkpads seem to use this as the trigger for enabling ACPI notifications rather than handling it in firmware. [rjw: Drop the brightness object created by acpi_video_init_brightness() if we are not going to use it.] Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <matthew.garrett@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
