Confirmed: This patch (restore QUIRK_NO_PCH_PWM_ENABLE) on top of 3.14.2
does fix it again for the two affected models.

Hi Daniel-

for... You said you had an idea?
Thanks very much for looking into it,

Here it is with intel_backlight/brightness set to 1 ("strobe light"
behavior occurring):
PGETBL_CTL: 0x
be (quite) happy to test a proper intel_backlight fix, but in the
meantime disabling it by quirk seems appropriate for this machine, since
that allows the acpi_video0 interface to work out of the box.
Thanks for considering it,

Dell XPS 13z exhibits problems (backlight flashing/pulsating) when
intel_backlight is enabled at all, so disable it.

i915.enable_backlight=0 can be used to disable i915 backlight control
and the /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight interface -- useful for

Several months ago, Matthew Garrett submitted a set of backlight
patches[1], all but one of which landed in 2.6.39-rc1. The one that
never did get merged is the bit that exposes the "intel_backlight"
interface:
[PATCH 2/5] i915: Add native backlight control
http://lists.freedeskto
ch Matthew!
FYI, I have published an experimental Ubuntu Maverick PPA kernel[2]
which includes your patches, plus my dell_laptop tweaks to inhibit the
broken dell_backlight by a module param or dmi blacklist table (in lieu
of a yet to be implemented more fine-grained check).
