Unfortunately it is the current situation (even without this patch), and 
this patch is not meant to fix the particular issue.

This patch replaces the following expression:
acpi_video_get_backlight_type() == acpi_backlight_native

As you can see, acpi_video_get_backlight_type() doesn't take a parameter 
which represents the backlight currently being operated. The problem is 
known and documented in "Brightness handling on devices with multiple 
internal panels" section of Documentation/gpu/todo.rst.

The exiting solution is based on the assumption that no device with i915 
and multiple internal backlights.

Regards,
Akihiko Odaki
