3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Scot Doyle <lkml14@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 9c72cc6f00d24711ef585772396dd1ae180881a6 upstream. commit c675949ec58ca50d5a3ae3c757892f1560f6e896 Author: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Apr 9 11:31:37 2014 +0300 drm/i915: do not setup backlight if not available according to VBT caused a regression on machines with a misconfigured VBT. Add a quirk to assert the presence of a controllable backlight. Use it to ignore the VBT backlight presence check during backlight setup.
