Chris Wilson b7a8087fbc Revert "Leave adjustment of backlight to the driver."
This reverts commit 9c3e34703d.

This commit is not ready, as first the driver needs to handle all
controllers, especially those that ignore the BLC and require their own
interface.  Fortunately, by moving that discovery into the kernel - where
it just means finding which ACPI device is attached to the video and has a
backlight interface - the userspace code should become much more sane,
and work even with multi-gpu, multi-lid systems.

But that is for tomorrow.
