ACPI: video: Prefer native over vendor
When available prefer native backlight control over vendor backlight control. Testing has shown that there are quite a few laptop models which rely on native backlight control (they don't have ACPI video bus backlight control) and on which acpi_osi_is_win8() returns false. Currently __acpi_video_get_backlight_type() returns vendor on these laptops, leading to an empty /sys/class/backlight. As a workaround for this acpi_video_backlight_use_native() has been temporarily changed to always return true. This re-introduces the problem of having multiple backlight devices under /sys/class/backlight for a single panel. Change __acpi_video_get_backlight_type() to prefer native over vendor when available. So that it returns native on these models. And change acpi_video_backlight_use_native() back to only return true when __acpi_video_get_backlight_type() returns native.
