Screen and keyboard brightness reset to maximum on reboot/logout

[Seth Forshee]

On the MacBook Air 4,1 I keep seeing the keyboard and screen backlights getting reset to maximum brightness. For the keyboard backlight it happens every time I log out and return to the display manager login screen. For the screen backlight it only happens after booting, but oddly enough it doesn't jump to maximum brightness until the display manager starts.
