    Subject[ 075/187] ACPI video: Still use ACPI backlight control if _DOS doesnt exist
    Date
    From: Greg KH <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

    3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>

    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.
