The current logic for the ACPI backlight detection will create a backlight device if no native or vendor drivers have created 8 seconds after the system has booted if the ACPI tables included backlight control methods. If the GPU drivers have loaded, they may be able to report whether any LCD panels were found. Allow using this information to factor in whether to enable the fallback logic for making an acpi_video0 backlight device.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
