entry->type is two bits, 0-1 in the Features byte of the Backlight Data
Structure in the spec. BDB_BACKLIGHT_TYPE_PWM_VESA_EDP_AUX will never
match, so this was also never tested. There are no updates to the VBT
spec to reflect the above change (and if I saw one, I'd reject it as
backward incompatible).

Please don't tell me you have some product specific spec and VBT there,
because it's not flying upstream.

The brightness control method structure does have a more detailed way of
describing the method, and it probably already covers what you need.

BR,
Jani.
