acpi_video_bus_get_devices() may fail due to some video output device
doesn't have the _ADR method, and in this case, the error processing
is to simply free the video structure in acpi_video_bus_add(), while
leaving those already registered video output devices in the wild,
which means for some video output device, we have already registered
a backlight interface and installed a notification handler for it.
So it can happen when user is using this system, on hotkey pressing,
the notification handler will send a keycode through a non-existing
input device, causing kernel freeze.
To solve this problem, free all those already registered video output
devices once something goes wrong in acpi_video_bus_get_devices(), so
that no wild backlight interfaces and notification handlers exist.

Currently we decide if the _BQC is using index by first setting the
level to maximum, and then check if _BQC returned maximum; if not, we
say it is using index.
This is not true for some buggy systems, where the _BQC method will
always return a constant value(e.g. 0 or 100 for the two broken system)
and thus break the current logic. So this patch tries to enhance the
quirk detect logic for _BQC: we do this by picking a test_level, it can
be the maximum level or the mininum one based on some condition. And we
don't make the assumption that if _BQC returned a value that is not what
we just set, it must be using an index. Instead, we will compare the
value returned from _BQC and if it doesn't match, see if the returned
value is an index. And if still no, clear the capability of _BQC.

The value initially read via _BQC also needs to be offset by 2 to
compensate for the first 2 special items in _BCL. Introduce a helper
function that does the BQC-value-to-level conversion in order to not
needlessly duplicate code.

In particular, this fixes brightness control initialization for all
devices that return index values from _BQC and don't happen to have the
initial index set by the BIOS in their _BCL table. One example for that
is the Dell Inspiron 15R SE (model number 7520).
What happened for those devices is that acpi_init_brightness queried the
initial brightness by calling acpi_video_device_lcd_get_level_current.
This called _BQC, which returned e.g. 13. As _BQC_use_index isn't
determined at this point (and thus has its initial value of 0), the
index isn't converted into the actual level. As '13' isn't present in
the _BCL list, *level is later overwritten with brightness->curr, which
was initialized to max_level (100) before. Later in
acpi_init_brightness, level_old (with the value 100) is used as an index
into the _BCL table, which causes a value outside of the actual table to
be used as input into acpi_video_device_lcd_set_level(). Depending on
the (undefined) value of that location, this call will fail, causing the
brightness control for the device in question not to be enabled.
Fix that by returning the raw value returned by the _BQC call in the
initialization case.

The second argument of ACPI driver .remove() operation is only used
by the ACPI processor driver and the value passed to that driver
through it is always available from the given struct acpi_device
object's removal_type field. For this reason, the second ACPI driver
.remove() argument is in fact useless, so drop it.

The standard video events may be overloaded for device specific
purposes. For example AMD ACPI interface overloads
ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE (0x81) to signal AMD-specific events. In such
cases we don't want to send the keypress (KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE) to the
userspace because the user did not press the mode switch key (the
spurious keypress confuses the DE which usually changes the
display configuration and messes up a dual-screen setup).
This patch gives the handlers the chance to examine the event and
block the keypress if the event is device specific.

We can't use "input" anymore after calling input_unregister_device().
The call to input_free_device() is a double free. The normal way to
deal with this is to make input_register_device() the last function
called in the function.

Quoth Dmitry Torokhov:
In addition to bus notifier we do install device notifier explicitly
so it might fire up early. The easiest fox would be to move
acpi_video_bus_start_devices() after input_allocate_device() but
before input_register_device() - unregistered input devices can handle
input_event() calls just fine.

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.
It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.
