Currently the backlight registration in apple-gmux.c is unconditional
(if a GMUX is detected).

I have attached a patch to make it honor the acpi_backlight=xxx
kernel commandline option like most other x86/ACPI backlight drivers
do, please give this a test.

Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: apple-gmux: Add acpi_video_get_backlight_type()
check

Make apple-gmux backlight registration honor the acpi_backlight=...
kernel commandline option which is used to select the backlight
control method on x86/ACPI devices.
