The apple-gmux driver only binds to old GMUX devices which have an IORESOURCE_IO resource (using inb()/outb()) rather then memory-mapped IO (IORESOURCE_MEM). T2 MacBooks use the new style GMUX devices (with IORESOURCE_MEM access), so these are not supported by the apple-gmux driver. This is not a problem since they have working ACPI video backlight support. But the apple_gmux_present() helper only checks if an ACPI device with the "APP000B" HID is present, causing acpi_video_get_backlight_type() to return acpi_backlight_apple_gmux disabling the acpi_video backlight device. Add a new apple_gmux_backlight_present() helper which checks that the "APP000B" device actually is an old GMUX device with an IORESOURCE_IO resource. This fixes the acpi_video0 backlight no longer registering on T2 MacBooks. Note people are working to add support for the new style GMUX to Linux: https://github.com/kekrby/linux-t2/commits/wip/hybrid-graphics Once this lands this patch should be reverted so that acpi_video_get_backlight_type() also prefers the gmux on new style GMUX MacBooks, but for now this is necessary to avoid regressing backlight control on T2 Macs.
