Thanks for doing this. Slightly unrelated, but you'll end up calling: acpi_video_unregister_backlight acpi_video_bus_unregister_backlight acpi_video_dev_unregister_backlight thermal_cooling_device_unregister Uhm, err, what? What business does *that* have in the backlight unregister call chain?! Should that be untangled from the mess too?
