Makes sense to me. How about acpi_video_bqc_to_level? I'd suggest
acpi_video_bqc_value_to_level, but that makes it hard to keep the 80
char limit in acpi_video_device_lcd_get_level_current.

But that new function (whatever it's named) is already used here?

BTW, shouldn't the use_bios_initial_backlight also be respected for the
BQC-returns-index case? Currently it's only used for the
BQC-returns-level case.

Agreed. I'll send a new patch set (this time with signed-off-by) once I
get opinion on the question above.

Thanks,

Danny
