ACPI: Ignore _BQC object when registering backlight device
According to acpi spec , the objectes of _BCL and _BCM are required if integrated LCD is present and supports brightness level and the _BQC is the optional object. So the _BQC object will be ignored when the backlight device is registered. At the same time when there is no _BQC object, the current brightness will be set to the maximum. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10206 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
