The problem is that the system76-acpi platform driver tries to create the exact same sysfs attribute itself for the system76_acpi::kbd_backlight device, leading to the conflict. For testing purposes, I've just rebuilt the kernel with the system76-apci color attribute renamed to kb_color, and that fixes the issue.
