This one is needed also.
Matthew made me a bit nervous about it,but to detect video capabilities it is
necessary to know whether the ACPI graphics device is really there.
The IGD problems should be solved now and this can be added, right? IMO it
could have been added before also because the other patches took care about
the reported regression.
Other patches depend on this one and won't compile without this function.
All patches are against:

Check whether ACPI graphics device is physically present
This is a reimplemention of commit
0119509c4fbc9adcef1472817fda295334612976
from Matthew Garrett <mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This patch got removed because of a regression: ThinkPads with a
Intel graphics card and an Integrated Graphics Device BIOS implementation
stopped working.
In fact, they only worked because the ACPI device of the discrete, the
wrong one, got used (via int10). So ACPI functions were poking on the wrong
hardware used which is a sever bug.
The next patch provides support for above ThinkPads to be able to
switch brightness via the legacy thinkpad_acpi driver and automatically
detect when to use it.
Original commit message from Matthew Garrett:
Vendors often ship machines with a choice of integrated or discrete
graphics, and use the same DSDT for both. As a result, the ACPI video
module will locate devices that may not exist on this specific platform.
Attempt to determine whether the device exists or not, and abort the
device creation if it doesn't.
