Some Toshibas have a broken acpi-video interface for brightness control
and need a special firmware call on resume to turn the panel back on.
So far these have been using the disable_backlight_sysfs_if workaround
to deal with this.
The recent x86/acpi backlight refactoring has broken this workaround:
1. This workaround relies on acpi_video_get_backlight_type() returning
acpi_video so that the acpi_video code actually runs; and
2. this relies on the actual native GPU driver to offer the sysfs
backlight interface to userspace.
After the refactor this breaks since the native driver will no
longer register its backlight-device if acpi_video_get_backlight_type()
does not return native and making it return native breaks 1.
Keeping the acpi_video backlight handling on resume active, while not
using it to set the brightness, is necessary because it does a _BCM
call on resume which is necessary to turn the panel back on on resume.
Looking at the DSDT shows that this _BCM call results in a Toshiba
HCI_SET HCI_LCD_BRIGHTNESS call, which turns the panel back on.
This kind of special vendor specific handling really belongs in
the vendor specific acpi driver. An earlier patch in this series
modifies toshiba_acpi to make the necessary HCI_SET call on resume
on affected models.
With toshiba_acpi taking care of the HCI_SET call on resume,
the acpi_video code no longer needs to call _BCM on resume.
So instead of using the (now broken) disable_backlight_sysfs_if
workaround, simply setting acpi_backlight=native to disable
the broken apci-video interface is sufficient fix things now.
After this there are no more users of the disable_backlight_sysfs_if
flag and as discussed above the flag also no longer works as intended,
so remove the disable_backlight_sysfs_if flag entirely.

This commit adds the ACPI battery hook which in turns adds the sysfs
entries.
Because the Toshiba laptops only support two modes (eco or normal), which
in testing correspond to 80% and 100% we simply round to the nearest
possible level when set.
It is possible that Toshiba laptops other than the Z830 has different set
points for the charging. If so, a quirk table could be introduced in the
future for this. For now, assume that all laptops that support this feature
work the same way.

This commit adds the internal functions to control the Toshiba laptop.
Unlike for example ThinkPads where this control is granular here it is
just off/on. When off it charges to 100%. When on it charges to about 80%.
Controlling this setting is done via HCI register 0x00ba. Setting to value
1 will result in limiting the charing to 80% of the battery capacity,
while setting it to 0 will allow charging to 100%.
Reading the current state is a bit weird, and needs a 1 set in the last
position of the query for whatever reason. In addition, the read may
return 0x8d20 (Data not available) rarely, so a retry mechanism is needed.
According to the Windows program used to control the feature the setting
will not take effect until the battery has been discharged to around 50%.
However, in my testing it takes effect as soon as the charge drops below
80%. On Windows Toshiba branded this feature as "Eco charging".

Immutable backlight-detect-refactor branch between acpi, drm-* and pdx86
Tag (immutable branch) with v6.0-rc1 + the (acpi/x86) backlight
detect refactor work. For merging into the acpi, drm-* and pdx86
subsystems.
We have to copy only selected fields from the original resource.
Because a PCI device will be removed immediately after getting
its resources, we may not use any allocated data, hence we may
not copy any pointers.
Consider the following scenario:
1/ a caller of p2sb_bar() gets the resource;
2/ the resource has been copied by platform_device_add_data()
in order to create a platform device;
3/ the platform device creation will call for the device driver's
->probe() as soon as a match found;
4/ the ->probe() takes given resources (see 2/) and tries to
access one of its field, i.e. 'name', in the
__devm_ioremap_resource() to create a pretty looking output;
5/ but the 'name' is a dangling pointer because p2sb_bar()
removed a PCI device, which 'name' had been copied to
the caller's memory.
6/ UAF (Use-After-Free) as a result.
Kudos to Mika for the initial analisys of the issue.

The WMI subsystem in the kernel currently tracks WMI devices by
a GUID string not by ACPI device. The GUID used by the `wmi-bmof`
module however is available from many devices on nearly every machine.
This originally was thought to be a bug, but as it happens on most
machines it is a design mistake. It has been fixed by tying an ACPI
device to the driver with struct wmi_driver. So drivers that have
moved over to struct wmi_driver can actually support multiple
instantiations of a GUID without any problem.
Add an allow list into wmi.c for GUIDs that the drivers that are known

Note that even though the DMI quirk table name was video_vendor_dmi_table,
5/6 quirks were actually quirks to use the GPU native backlight.
These 5 quirks also had a callback in their dmi_system_id entry which
disabled the acer-wmi vendor driver; and any DMI match resulted in:
acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type(acpi_backlight_vendor);
which disabled the acpi_video driver, so only the native driver was left.
The new entries for these 5/6 devices correctly marks these as needing
the native backlight driver.
Also note that other changes in this series change the native backlight
drivers to no longer unconditionally register their backlight. Instead
these drivers now do this check:

Note the new acpi_video_register_backlight() function is also called from
a delayed work to ensure that the acpi_video backlight devices does get
registered if necessary even if there is no drm/kms driver or when it is
disabled.
Changes in v2:
- Make register_backlight_delay a module parameter, mainly so that it can
be disabled by Nvidia binary driver users

When acpi_video_register() has not run yet the video_bus_head will be
empty, so there is no need to check the register_count flag first.

Move the list_del removing an acpi_video_bus from video_bus_head
on teardown to before the teardown is done, to avoid code iterating
over the video_bus_head list seeing acpi_video_bus objects on there
which are (partly) torn down already.

All x86/ACPI kms drivers which register native/BACKLIGHT_RAW type
backlight devices call acpi_video_backlight_use_native() now. This sets
__acpi_video_get_backlight_type()'s internal static native_available flag.
This makes the backlight_device_get_by_type(BACKLIGHT_RAW) check
unnecessary.
Relying on the cached native_available value not only is simpler, it will
also work correctly in cases where then native backlight registration was
skipped because of acpi_video_backlight_use_native() returning false.

Before this commit when we want userspace to use the acpi_video backlight
device we register both the GPU's native backlight device and acpi_video's
firmware acpi_video# backlight device. This relies on userspace preferring
firmware type backlight devices over native ones.
Registering 2 backlight devices for a single display really is
undesirable, don't register the GPU's native backlight device when
another backlight device should be used.
Changes in v2:
- Add nouveau_acpi_video_backlight_use_native() wrapper to avoid unresolved
symbol errors on non X86

Fix for TUF laptops returning with an -ENOSPC on calling
asus_wmi_evaluate_method_buf() when fetching default curves. The TUF method
requires at least 32 bytes space.
This also moves and changes the pr_debug() in fan_curve_check_present() to
pr_warn() in fan_curve_get_factory_default() so that there is at least some
indication in logs of why it fails.
