This makes acpi-als properly enable the light sensor on the Zenbook UX430UQ. I don't know if the checking that I do to make sure that the ACPI method exists is sufficient or if it should disable the sensor when the module is unloaded, so input is appreciated on those matters.

Please wrap descriptions to around 72 characters (leaves room for indentation
in the email thread :)

This seems very much like a board specific hack.  I've cc'd people
who have worked on the driver recently and the acpi list.

So this is poking something on
PCI bus 0
LPC bus B
Somethingbus 0
Ambient light controller.

I assume there is a better way of establishing this needs to be set?

This is indeed board specific. I know many other laptops of the
Zenbook line need something similar and if you look at
drivers/platform/x86/asus-wmi.c or any other asus-* driver you'll
find several quirks to enable various features.

Kiernan, check commit aca234f6378864d85514be558746c0ea6eabfa8e
("asus-wmi: provide access to ALS control") in particular.

Maybe that's where it should go . EC0 in the ACPI path seems like
Embedded Controller to me .

That sounds like a good idea. I'll have a look at that file and
possibly apply my patch to that instead.
