      This workaround is specific for a particular panel on Google
      chromebook project. When user space daemon enter idle state.
      It request adjust brightness to 0, turn backlight_enable signal
      off and keep eDP main link active.
      
      On general LCD, this behavior might not be a problem.
      But on this panel, its tcon would expect source to execute
      full eDP power off sequence after drop backlight_enable signal.
      Without eDP power off sequence. Even source try to turn
      backlight_enable signal on and restore proper brightness level.
      This panel is not able to light on again.
      
      This WA ignored the request from user space daemon to disable
      backlight_enable signal and keep it on always. When user space
      request kernel to turn eDP display off, kernel driver still
      can control backlight_enable signal properly. It would not
      impact standard eDP power off sequence.
      
      v2: 1. modify the quirk name and debug messages.
          2. unregister backlight.power callback for specific device.
      v3: 1. modify debug output messages.
          2. use DMI_EXACT_MATCH instead of DMI_MATCH.
