ACPI: video: Change disable_backlight_sysfs_if quirks to acpi_backlight=native
Some Toshibas have a broken acpi-video interface for brightness control and need a special firmware call on resume to turn the panel back on. So far these have been using the disable_backlight_sysfs_if workaround to deal with this. The recent x86/acpi backlight refactoring has broken this workaround: 1. This workaround relies on acpi_video_get_backlight_type() returning acpi_video so that the acpi_video code actually runs; and 2. this relies on the actual native GPU driver to offer the sysfs backlight interface to userspace. After the refactor this breaks since the native driver will no longer register its backlight-device if acpi_video_get_backlight_type() does not return native and making it return native breaks 1. Keeping the acpi_video backlight handling on resume active, while not using it to set the brightness, is necessary because it does a _BCM call on resume which is necessary to turn the panel back on on resume. Looking at the DSDT shows that this _BCM call results in a Toshiba HCI_SET HCI_LCD_BRIGHTNESS call, which turns the panel back on. This kind of special vendor specific handling really belongs in the vendor specific acpi driver. An earlier patch in this series modifies toshiba_acpi to make the necessary HCI_SET call on resume on affected models. With toshiba_acpi taking care of the HCI_SET call on resume, the acpi_video code no longer needs to call _BCM on resume. So instead of using the (now broken) disable_backlight_sysfs_if workaround, simply setting acpi_backlight=native to disable the broken apci-video interface is sufficient fix things now. After this there are no more users of the disable_backlight_sysfs_if flag and as discussed above the flag also no longer works as intended, so remove the disable_backlight_sysfs_if flag entirely.
