As it turns out, apparently some machines will actually leave additional
backlight functionality like dynamic backlight control on before the OS
loads. Currently we don't take care to disable unsupported features when
writing back the backlight mode, which can lead to some rather strange
looking behavior when adjusting the backlight.
So, let's fix this by ensuring we only keep supported features enabled for
panel backlights - which should fix some of the issues we were seeing from
this on fi-bdw-samus.
