--- Comment #1 from Bogdan (bogdan.pylypenko...@gmail.com) ---
Syslog messages are generated in any case, regardless of the availability of
the backlight device: both in 6.1.3 and at 6.1.5+.

But backlight level is changed only if backlight device is present in the
system (6.1.3).

Backlight level stay at 100% (maximum), if backlight device dows not found in
system (6.1.5 and above).

At 100% level of backlight, the eyes are damaged by high intensity of the led
light.

I do not test the kernel 6.1.4.

I think that the backlighting device was not found in my system, and the link
at /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:05:00.0/backlight path was not
created using this function added to the kernel 6.1.4 or 6.1.5:
