ACPI / video: Always call acpi_video_init_brightness() on init

Matthew Garrett · rafaeljw · commit c04c697cf1fe · 2013-07-18T01:31:47.000+02:00
We have to call acpi_video_init_brightness() even if we're not going
to initialise the backlight - Thinkpads seem to use this as the
trigger for enabling ACPI notifications rather than handling it in
firmware.

[rjw: Drop the brightness object created by
 acpi_video_init_brightness() if we are not going to use it.]
