ACPI: video: use platform backlight driver on Xiaomi Mi Pad 2
The Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 is a Cherry Trail based x86 tablet which does not use the i915's driver backlight control support: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_panel_setup_backlight [i915]] no backlight present per VBT Like all Cherry Trail devices the ACPI tables on the Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 contain a broken ACPI-video implementation which causes 6 different acpi_video backlights to get registered when used. The lack of the i915 driver registering a BACKLIGHT_RAW (aka native) type backlight causes acpi_video_get_backlight_type() to pick the broken acpi_video backlight code as the backlight driver to use. There actually is a separate lp8556 backlight controller connected over I2C which gets registered as a BACKLIGHT_PLATFORM (aka vendor). Add a quirk to force acpi_video_get_backlight_type() to return acpi_backlight_vendor, so that the broken acpi_video backlight interfaces do not get registered.
