[PATCH v1] ACPI: video: Fix missing native backlight on Chromebooks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Chromebooks don't have backlight in ACPI table, they suppose to use
native backlight in this case. Check presence of the CrOS embedded
controller ACPI device and prefer the native backlight if EC found.
