Hans de Goede b5f0943001 platform/x86: dell-uart-backlight: Use acpi_video_get_backlight_type() 
The dell-uart-backlight driver supports backlight control on Dell All In
One (AIO) models using a backlight controller board connected to an UART.

In DSDT this uart port will be defined as:

   Name (_HID, "DELL0501")
   Name (_CID, EisaId ("PNP0501")

Now the first AIO has turned up which has not only the DSDT bits for this,
but also an actual controller attached to the UART, yet it is not using
this controller for backlight control.

Use the acpi_video_get_backlight_type() function from the ACPI video-detect
code to check if the dell-uart-backlight driver should actually be used.
This allows reusing the existing ACPI video-detect infra to override
the backlight control method on the commandline or with DMI quirks.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
