Hi,

This series should fix a big issue when the vendor backlight is known
to work better than the ACPI backlight (and sometime it's the only
backlight that really works).

It adds a way for vendor drivers to promote themselves, still respecting
acpi_backlight=vendor|video parameters (in case the vendor driver is
wrong, and the ACPI driver works better). This way, acpi_video_register()
still works properly.

The series then add calls to this new functions in appropriates drivers,
and also blacklist a laptop where the ACPI video module is known to
break the backlight untill next reboot.

Thanks,
