ACPI video: Still use ACPI backlight control if _DOS doesn't exist
commit b03738430c7537d5f87948e0b35d8aaf2688c6b4 upstream. This fixes a regression in 3.4-rc1 caused by commit ea9f8856bd6d4ed45885b06a338f7362cd6c60e5 (ACPI video: Harden video bus adding.) Some platforms don't have _DOS control method, but the ACPI backlight still works. We should not invoke _DOS for these platforms. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43168 Cc: Igor Murzov <intergalactic.anonymous@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
