Makes sense. I modified the patch a little bit so that if user has
specified the cmdline option use_native_backlight=0/1, it will always
take effect no matter if the system is in DMI table or not.
From: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: [PATCH] ACPI / video: Add systems that should favor native backlight
interface
Some system's ACPI video backlight control interface is broken and the
native backlight control interface should be used by default. This patch
sets the use_native_backlight parameter to true for those systems so
that video backlight control interface will not be created. To be
specific, the ThinkPad T430s/X230, Lenovo Yoga 13 and Dell Inspiron 7520
are added here.
Note that the user specified kernel cmdline option will always have the
highest priority, i.e. if use_native_backlight=0 is specified and the
system is in the DMI table, the video module will not skip register
backlight interface for it.
