Perhaps the directory was populated by a different kernel module, since when I did the bisect yesterday the directory would be there on boot before I started X or loaded i915. I'm not sure if that matters to any other user-space app. (or if ideally one is supposed to be able to control brightness in the console without having to load i915), but it's fine for controlling brightness in Xorg.
