Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Backlight sysfs knobs created by asus-wmi don't really work, hence
  systemd-backlight services are in failed state.

  [Fix]
  Ensure the backlight device are really present

  [Test]
  With the fix applied, the backlight sysfs knobs are not longer present
  under /sys/class/backlight, so there's no more failed systemd-backlight
  service.

  [Where problems could occur]
  Though highly unlikely, but if there's working device that is created
  even when the WMI read is 0xffffffff, the device will be missing.
