Some Thinkpad laptops' firmware will initiate a backlight level change
request through operation region on the events of AC plug/unplug, but
since we are not using firmware's interface to do the backlight setting
on these affected laptops, we do not want the firmware to use some
arbitrary value from its ASL variable to set the backlight level on
AC plug/unplug either.

v3:
  - use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL instead of EXPORT_SYMBOL;
  - add inline to stub
  as suggested by Rafael.

I've made these two changes already in the commit in my tree.

And here you need acpi_video_verify_backlight_support(void) (fixed up too).
