ACPI / video: Add a acpi_video_handles_brightness_key_presses() helper
Several drivers want to know if the acpi-video is generating key-presses for brightness change hotkeys to avoid sending double key-events to userspace for these. Currently these driver use this construct for this: if (acpi_video_get_backlight_type() == acpi_backlight_vendor) report_brightness_key_event(); This indirect way of detecting if acpi-video is active does not make the code easier to understand, and in some cases it is wrong because just because the preferred type != vendor does not mean that acpi-video is actually listening for brightness events, e.g. there may be no acpi-video bus on the system at all. This commit adds a acpi_video_handles_brightness_key_presses() helper function, making the code needing this functionality both easier to read and more correct.
