Never mind.

I think you will need at least:

commit fbc9fe1b4f222a7c575e3bd8e9defe59c6190a04
Author: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@intel.com>
Date:   Fri Oct 11 21:27:45 2013 +0800

    ACPI / video: Do not register backlight if win8 and native interface exists

commit 0e9f81d3b7cd0649a3bc437391b6a0650f98f844
Author: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@intel.com>
Date:   Tue Feb 18 13:54:20 2014 +0800

    ACPI / video: Add systems that should favour native backlight interface

commit 751109aad5834375ca9ed0dcfcd85a00cbf872b5
Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
Date:   Thu Jun 5 22:47:35 2014 +0200

    ACPI / video: Change the default for video.use_native_backlight to 1

Maybe others, you will need to figure them out.

Thanks,
Aaron
