The acpi_no_initrd_override parameter permits to disable the load of an ACPI
table from the initramfs.

Vendors often ship machines with a choice of integrated or discrete
graphics, and use the same DSDT for both. As a result, the ACPI video
module will locate devices that may not exist on this specific platform.
Attempt to determine whether the device exists or not, and abort the
device creation if it do not exist.

Some machines seem to need the backlight brightness to be reset on resume.
Add support for doing so to the video module.

Call notifier chain for display/brightness switch events.
The kernel mode graphics driver is interested in this.

Kernel mode graphics drivers need this ACPI notifier chaine
so that they can get notified upon hotkey events.

Display switching via ACPI control methods are
not known to work on any platforms.
Further, the X community wants to control the display
switching all by themselves without BIOS/AML involvement.

Introduce new module parameter for brightness control.
"brightness_switch_enabled" is set by default which means
nothing changes upon brightness switch events.
When "brightness_switch_enabled" is cleared via
"echo 0 > /sys/module/video/parameters/brightness_switch_enabled",
ACPI will not try to change the brightness level any more.
Either X will take charge of this or users can change the brightness level
by poking /sys/class/backlight/acpi_videoX/...
