Public bug reported:

ASUS Zenbook UX425QA/UM425QA, Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS, AMD Cezanne Radeon
Vega graphics.

Display brightness works correctly on kernel 6.14.0-37-generic, but not
on kernel 7.0.0-34-generic or 7.0.0-38-generic.

GNOME brightness slider and keyboard shortcuts respond, but physical
brightness does not change.

Native AMD backlight reports actual_brightness=65536 with
max_brightness=65535.

Direct sysfs brightness adjustments fail.

Tested clean kernel parameters, amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x40000, and
acpi_backlight=video without success.
