drm/gma500: Call acpi_video_register_backlight()
On machines without an Intel video opregion the acpi_video driver immediately probes the ACPI video bus and used to also immediately register acpi_video# backlight devices when supported. Once the drm/kms driver then loaded later and possibly registered a native backlight device then the drivers/acpi/video_detect.c code unregistered the acpi_video0 device to avoid there being 2 backlight devices (when acpi_video_get_backlight_type()==native). This means that userspace used to briefly see 2 devices and the disappearing of acpi_video0 after a brief time confuses the systemd backlight level save/restore code, see e.g.: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=269920 To fix this the ACPI video code has been modified to make backlight class device registration a separate step, relying on the drm/kms driver to ask for the acpi_video backlight registration after it is done setting up its native backlight device. Add a call to the new acpi_video_register_backlight() function after setting up the gma500's native backlight, so that the acpi_video backlight device gets registered on systems where the gma500's native backlight device is not registered.
