Some buggy BIOS exports multiple ACPI video bus devices for the same
VGA controller, and multiple backlight control methods as well.
This messes up the ACPI video backlight control.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13577
With this patch applied, only the FIRST ACPI video bus device
under a PCI device node is bind to ACPI video driver by default.
If the first ACPI video bus device doesn't work well, we can use
video.allow_duplicates=1 to go back to the old behavior.

even if we disable the ACPI backlight control by using

In this case we should not print any warning message.

proc.c and video.c are a bit sloppy around types and style,
confusing gcc for a new feature that'll be in 2.6.33 and will
cause a warning on the current code.
This patch changes
if (foo + 1 > sizeof bar)
into
if (foo >= sizeof(bar))
which is more kernel-style.
it also changes a variable in proc.c to unsigned; it gets assigned
a value from an unsigned type, and is then only compared for > not
for negative, so using unsigned is just outright the right type

Currently a video bus device must (beside other criteria) define _DOD and
_DOS methods to be considered a video device.
Some broken BIOSes prevented working backlight control by only defining both
for one (non-existing bus) and only _DOD for the rest. With this patch in
place the other bus definitions were considered too and backlight control
started to work again.

Sometimes both acpi video and i915 driver are compiled as modules.
And there exists the strict dependency between the two drivers.
The acpi video bus will be unloaded in course of unloading the i915 driver.
If we unload the acpi video driver, then the kernel oops will be triggered.
Add the reference count to avoid unloading the ACPI video bus twice.
The reference count should be checked before unregistering the acpi video bus.
If the reference count is already zero, it won't unregister it again.
And after the acpi video bus is already unregistered, the reference count
will be set to zero.

In the current code, for a box with an indexed _BQC method, we
1. get the current brightness level by evaluating _BQC
2. set the value gotten in step 1 to _BCM
3. get the current brightness level again
4. set the _BQC_use_index flag if the results gotten
in step 1 and in step 3 don't equal.
But this logic doesn't work actually, because the _BQC_use_index
is not set when acpi_video_device_lcd_set_level is invoked.
This results in a failure in step 2.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12249#c83
Now, we set the _BQC_use_index flag after invoking _BQC for the first
time. And reevaluate the _BQC to get the correct brightness level.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.
