The Lenovo Ideapad Z570 (which is an Acer in disguise like some other Ideapads) has a broken acpi_video interface and is too old for the acpi-video code to automatically prefer the native backlight interface, so add a quirk for it. Note that this cannot be done with a quirk in the vendor backlight driver as is the normal way to fix this as the Z570 offers both acer-wmi and ideapad-laptop vendor backlight interfaces, so this would require the same quirk in 2 places which is the wrong thing to do.
