On machins without an i915 opregion the acpi_video driver immediately
probes the ACPI video bus and used to also immediately register
acpi_video# backlight devices when supported.

Once the drm/kms driver then loaded later and possibly registered
a native backlight device then the drivers/acpi/video_detect.c code
unregistered the acpi_video0 device to avoid there being 2 backlight
devices (when acpi_video_get_backlight_type()==native).

This means that userspace used to briefly see 2 devices and the
disappearing of acpi_video0 after a brief time confuses the systemd
backlight level save/restore code, see e.g.:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=269920

To fix this the ACPI video code has been modified to make backlight class
device registration a separate step, relying on the drm/kms driver to
ask for the acpi_video backlight registration after it is done setting up
its native backlight device.

Add a call to the new acpi_video_register_backlight() after the i915 calls
acpi_video_register() (after setting up the i915 opregion) so that the
acpi_video backlight devices get registered on systems where the i915
native backlight device is not registered.

Changes in v2:
-Only call acpi_video_register_backlight() when a panel is detected

Apologies for procrastinating the review.

Please let's not add new flags like have_panel to i915; we're trying to
clean it up instead.

The code here needs to iterate over the connectors to decide. Maybe
better abstracted a function.

BR,
Jani.

So something like add a i915_have_panel() helper which iterates over all
the connectors and then of 1 of them is of the LVDS / eDP / DSI type
return true ?

Or abstract the acpi_video_register_backlight() calling in a function
that does the loop and calls if necessary.
