On these systems they have ENV{IIO_SENSOR_PROXY_TYPE}="iio-poll-als iio-buffer-als", and removing iio-poll-als makes reading stable. This adds workaround to the affected Dell laptop models which may equip with ALS. [Impact] * Only models matching the same device BIOS IDs are affected. [Test Plan] * Pick devices which BIOS IDs are listed in the patch, and test whether it's ambient light sensors are working properly without unexpected brightness flickers. [Where problems could occur] * Machines matching the same BIOS ID, either having ALS built-in or not, but attached ambient light sensors externally (for example, ColorHug ALS) might experience failures.
