3.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Hans de Goede <[email protected]> commit 25294e9f00f03b2b4f4c56e913bc8c573972f33b upstream. Commit 751109aad583 ("ACPI / video: Change the default for video.use_native_backlight to 1") has changed the default for use_native_backlight from 0 to 1, but instead of changing use_native_backlight_dmi to true, and leaving use_native_backlight_param at -1, it has changed use_native_backlight_param to 1. This causes acpi_video_use_native_backlight() to always think that a value was specified through the param, making it impossible to add a dmi based quirk to force 0 now that the default is 1. This fixes this by restoring the use_native_backlight_param default to -1, and instead setting the use_native_backlight_dmi default to true.
