After upgrading to linux Kernel-3.14, the screen on my Dell Latitude
D630 was nearly unreadably dim. When I Boot the 3.13 kernel, my screen
is bright.
I opened a Bug here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1094066
and others have chimed in that they have the same problem.
I bisected the kernel, and found the following commit is responsible for
this problem:
b35684b8fa94e04f55fd38bf672b737741d2f9e2 is the first bad commit
commit b35684b8fa94e04f55fd38bf672b737741d2f9e2

drm/i915: do full backlight setup at enable time
We should now have all the information we need to do a full
initialization of the backlight registers.
v2: Keep QUIRK_NO_PCH_PWM_ENABLE for now (Imre).

I can find my way around the kernel, but haven't hit this area before.
Any help is appreciated.
