Title: Avoid creating non-working backlight sysfs knob from ASUS board Status in HWE Next: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Jammy: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Mantic: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Noble: Fix Released 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.
