2023-06-13 09:27:37 AceLan Kao description [Impact] [Test] [Verify] [Where problems could occur] [Impact] dell_laptop created a non-working backlight driver before nvidia is loaded, that leads to the system can't adjust the display brightness. [Fix] The patch prevents platform driver(dell_laptop) from creating backlight driver after win8. https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-acpi/patch/20230608091258.7963-1-hdegoede@redhat.com/ [Test] Verified on the dell platform which reports this issue. [Where problems could occur] The assumption of the backlight control is that after win8 all laptops backlight are controlled by either ACPI or native graphic driver. It impact the laptops that do not follow the assumption and will lead to broken backlight interface.
