I don't understand this, what does the +2 have to do here?
_BQC returned us an index, and then we should just convert it to level,
why +2?

The only explanation would be, for BIOS tables that return _BQC as
index, they are indexing from the 3rd entry. Is it the case? If so, I
think we need to put a comment here.

What about we convert the value to level first?

	if (use_bios_initial_backlight) {
		level = acpi_video_bqc_value_to_level(device, level_old);
		/*
		 * Set the backlight to the initial state.
		 * On some buggy laptops, _BQC returns an uninitialized

		 */
		for (i = 2; i < br->count; i++)
			if (level == br->levels[i])
				break;
		if (i == br->count)
			level = max_level;
	}
