No, acpi.h has a _few_ ACPI=n stubs:

: static inline int early_acpi_boot_init(void)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: static inline int acpi_boot_init(void)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: static inline int acpi_boot_table_init(void)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: static inline int acpi_mps_check(void)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: static inline int acpi_check_resource_conflict(struct resource *res)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: static inline int acpi_check_region(resource_size_t start, resource_size_t n,
: 				    const char *name)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: static inline int acpi_check_mem_region(resource_size_t start,
: 					resource_size_t n, const char *name)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }

So it seems that acpi_video_backlight_support() should be added to this
list.  Except it already has a stub, in the wrong place.  This whole block:

: #if defined(CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO) || defined(CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO_MODULE)
: 
: extern long acpi_video_get_capabilities(acpi_handle graphics_dev_handle);
: extern long acpi_is_video_device(struct acpi_device *device);
: extern int acpi_video_backlight_support(void);
: extern int acpi_video_display_switch_support(void);
: 
: #else
: 
: static inline long acpi_video_get_capabilities(acpi_handle graphics_dev_handle)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: static inline long acpi_is_video_device(struct acpi_device *device)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: static inline int acpi_video_backlight_support(void)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: static inline int acpi_video_display_switch_support(void)
: {
: 	return 0;
: }
: 
: #endif /* defined(CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO) || defined(CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO_MODULE) */
: 

needs to be moved outside the `#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI' altogether.  Then you
can drop the ifdef.
