            Bug ID: 221433
           Summary: MacBookPro11,1 backlight wrong after wake
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
          Hardware: Intel
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: low
          Priority: P3
         Component: Power-Video
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
        Regression: No

Same family of bug as commit 7dc918daaf29 (MacBookPro9,2) and commit
295991836b23 (MacBookPro11,2) — ACPI/i915 backlight state desync on this
firmware. On this machine the symptom is: brightness is wrong after DPMS resume
(slider shows e.g. 95%, but panel real visibly is much dimmer), nudging the
slider one step fixes it. 

Confirmed acpi_backlight=native fully resolves it on MacBookPro11,1.

Possible fix: add to video_detect_dmi_table[] in drivers/acpi/video_detect.c:

<pre>
    {
        .callback = video_detect_force_native,
        /* Apple MacBook Pro 11,1 */
        .matches = {
            DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "Apple Inc."),
            DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "MacBookPro11,1"),
        },
    },
</pre>

DMI strings verified via dmidecode. Tested on Debian 6.1.0-44.
