Bug description:
  [Impact] 
  On some ThinkPads, the BIOS reported invalid acpi backlight implement .
  Then backlight can't be changed because OS use acpi backlight by default.

  [Fix]
  Check acpi backlight mode, disable it if invalid.

  [Test Case]
  Verified on 3 models of thinkpad include Intel/NV/AMD GPU with positive 
results.

  [Regression Potential] 
  Low
  Most ThinkPads now use native backlight control by default.
  Check the false acpi mode correctly.
