On x86/ACPI boards the acpi_video driver will usually initialize before the kms driver (except i915). This causes /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0 to show up and then the kms driver registers its own native backlight device after which the drivers/acpi/video_detect.c code unregisters the acpi_video0 device (when acpi_video_get_backlight_type()==native). This means that userspace briefly sees 2 devices and the disappearing of acpi_video0 after a brief time confuses the systemd backlight level save/restore code, see e.g.: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=269920 To fix this make backlight class device registration a separate step done by a new acpi_video_register_backlight() function. The intend is for this to be called by the drm/kms driver *after* it is done setting up its own native backlight device. So that acpi_video_get_backlight_type() knows if a native backlight will be available or not at acpi_video backlight registration time, avoiding the add + remove dance. Note the new acpi_video_register_backlight() function is also called from a delayed work to ensure that the acpi_video backlight devices does get registered if necessary even if there is no drm/kms driver or when it is disabled. Changes in v2: - Make register_backlight_delay a module parameter, mainly so that it can be disabled by Nvidia binary driver users Acked-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
