Thanks for the patch! This works better for me:
$ ls -al /sys/class/backlight/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Nov 29 09:00 .
drwxr-xr-x 50 root root 0 Nov 29 09:00 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov 29 08:59 acpi_video0 ->
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0
And I see no dmesg dev_dbg() prints from the acpi/video module.

Should we try to get this into 3.18, then?
Thanks,
Brian
