Bug Description
Since the upgrade to kernel 3.13.0-35 (from 3.13.0-34), the screen is very dark to the point it's unusable.
Backlight seems completely turned off. Using the brightness keys doesn't help.
It was working fine with 3.13.0-34.
I found that the offending patch is "drm/radeon: set default bl level to something reasonable".
I reverted this patch and recompiled 3.13.0-35, and it solved the problem.
