Hi Rafael,

This patch series consists of 2 parts:

1. Fix missing acpi_video# devices on some systems, currently in kernels
    >= 6.1.5 and >= 6.2.0 acpi_video# backlight class devices will only
    get registered (by default) when a GPU driver asks for this by calling
    acpi_video_register_backlight(). This is causing backlight control to
    be missing on some systems.

    Patches 1-4 fix this and ideally these should be send to Linus for
    an upcoming 6.3-rc# release.

2. Now that the dust has settled a bit on the backlight refactor we can
    do some further cleanups. This is done in patches 5 + 6. Note that
    patch 5 depends on patch 2.

Regards,

Hans

One minor nit on a patch, otherwise:
