Subject: ACPI: video: use platform backlight driver on Xiaomi Mi Pad 2
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc1
Git-commit: 60e6655f0a6c6e4604e4b89444e5fb8e3d43a67b
References: jsc#PED-1408
The Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 is a Cherry Trail based x86 tablet which does not
use the i915's driver backlight control support:
i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_panel_setup_backlight [i915]] no backlight present per VBT
Like all Cherry Trail devices the ACPI tables on the Xiaomi Mi Pad 2
contain a broken ACPI-video implementation which causes 6 different
acpi_video backlights to get registered when used.
The lack of the i915 driver registering a BACKLIGHT_RAW (aka native) type
backlight causes acpi_video_get_backlight_type() to pick the broken
acpi_video backlight code as the backlight driver to use.
There actually is a separate lp8556 backlight controller connected
over I2C which gets registered as a BACKLIGHT_PLATFORM (aka vendor).
Add a quirk to force acpi_video_get_backlight_type() to return
acpi_backlight_vendor, so that the broken acpi_video backlight
interfaces do not get registered.
