ACPI / Video: Probe for output switch method when searching video devices.
This patch reverts one hunk of 677bd810eedce61edf15452491781ff046b92edc "ACPI video: remove output switching control", namely the removal of probing for _DOS/_DOD when searching for video devices. This is needed on some Fujitsu Laptops (at least S7110, P8010) for the ACPI backlight interface to work, as an these machines, neither ROM nor posting methods are available, and after removal of output switching, none of the caps triggers, which prevents the backlight search from being entered. Tested on a Fujitsu Lifebook S7110 and Fujitsu Lifebook P8010. This probably fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27312 for the people who have no entry in /sys/class/backlight. This is the complete list of public (starting with "_") methods implemented on the S7110, BIOS rev 1.34: \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0._DOS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0._DOD \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.CRT._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.CRT._DCS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.CRT._DGS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.CRT._DSS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._BCL \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._BCM \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._BQC \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._DCS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._DGS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._DSS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._PS0 \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.LCD._PS3 \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.TV._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.TV._DCS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.TV._DGS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.TV._DSS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.DVI._ADR \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.DVI._DCS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.DVI._DGS \_SB_.PCI0.GFX0.DVI._DSS Signed-off-by: Michael Karcher <kernel@mkarcher.dialup.fu-berlin.de> Acked-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
