[patch for 2.6.35? 1/1] acpi: video: fix acpi_backlight=video

[akpm]

From: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@canonical.com>

Make "acpi_backlight=video" param enable ACPI_VIDEO_BACKLIGHT_FORCE_VIDEO
as intended, instead of incorrectly enabling video output switching.

(top-posting repaired!)

linux-next changes acpi_backlight().  In my tree patch(1) decided to
migrate the hunk into acpi_display_output().

Please check that acpi_display_output() didn't need the same change.

I'll drop the patch, thanks.

I think the hunk got mis-relocated in your tree,
and that the correct patch is included in the acpi tree.

It looks okay.
