I don't think this is a regression. On your box the KMS must be enabled if we expect that it can work well. Before the commit of b7f0ab46 is shipped, acpi video driver is not loaded if KMS is not enabled. If the KMS is enabled, i915 driver will initialize the ACPI opregion and then load the acpi video driver. In such case your box can work well. But unfortunately it will bring that there is no backlight I/F on other boxes if KMS is not enabled. This is unsuitable for other users. After the commit of b7f0ab46 is shipped, the acpi video driver will be loaded by i915 driver regardless whether the KMS is enabled or not. Of course the side effect is that it can't work on your box if KMS is not enabled. It can work well if the KMS is enabled. IMO this bug can be rejected.
