If this new function will return false when acpi video is not reporting
keypresses *BUT* still allowing any sort of brightness changes (e.g. through
sysfs), I don't think it is safe in thinkpad-acpi's case.

So, will it return false in any situation whether acpi-video attached to the
backlight class?
