Commit ea9f8856bd6d4 ("ACPI video: Harden video bus adding") breaks the
backlight controls on my Vaio laptop.
After this patch the folder /sys/class/backlight becomes empty and
I can't change the lcd brightness anymore.
This regression is present in v3.4.2 as well as in the current
v3.5.0-rc2.
I tried to manually revert that commit from v3.5.0-rc2, and the resulting
patch below fixes the issue for me.
My config is here:
http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/crm66/config-3.5-rc1
and the dmesg of v3.5.0-rc2 plus the patch below is here:

Len,
I assume this regression fix is in some ACPI tree pending?
