The backlight control is properly initialized on the APU which is the chip that controls the backlight.

Looking into the radeon source, here is where the call came > from (radeon_acpi.c): What the brightness keys do is up to the OEM. On most modern laptops, they tend to just generate key press events rather than actually changing the brightness or generating acpi events. It's up to the desktop environment to map that event to the brightness controls exposed by the kernel.
