Hans de Goede 93a291dfaf ACPI / video: Move backlight notifier to video_detect.c
Move the unregistering of the acpi backlight interface on registering of a
native backlight from video.c to video_detect.c where it belongs.

Note this removes support for re-registering the acpi backlight interface
when the native interface goes away. In practice this never happens and
it needlessly complicates the code.

Hans de Goede 3bd6bce369 ACPI / video: Port to new backlight interface selection API
Most of the patch is moving the dmi quirks for forcing use of the
acpi-video / the native backlight interface to video_detect.c.

What remains is a nice cleanup.

Hans de Goede 14ca7a47d0 acpi-video-detect: video: Make video_detect code part of the video module
This is a preparation patch for the backlight interface selection logic
cleanup, there are 2 reasons to not always build the video_detect code
into the kernel:

1) In order for the video_detect.c to also deal with / select native
backlight interfaces on win8 systems, instead of doing this in video.c
where it does not belong, video_detect.c needs to call into the backlight
class code. Which cannot be done if it is builtin and the blacklight class
is not.

2) Currently all the platform/x86 drivers which have quirks to prefer
the vendor driver over acpi-video call acpi_video_unregister_backlight()
to remove the acpi-video backlight interface, this logic really belongs
in video_detect.c, which will cause video_detect.c to depend on symbols of
video.c and video.c already depends on video_detect.c symbols, so they
really need to be a single module.

Note that this commits make 2 changes so as to maintain 100% kernel
commandline compatibility:

1) The __setup call for the acpi_backlight= handling is moved to
   acpi/util.c as __setup may only be used by code which is alwasy builtin
2) video.c is renamed to acpi_video.c so that it can be combined with
   video_detect.c into video.ko

This commit also makes changes to drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig to ensure
that drivers which use acpi_video_backlight_support() from video_detect.c,
will not be built-in when acpi_video is not built in. This also changes
some "select" uses to "depends on" to avoid dependency loops.
