I admit I'm not really an ACPI expert, but thinking about this more, I'm wondering if maybe we should just send the appropriate brightness change, switch display, etc. event to userspace rather than handling it directly in the radeon driver, then let userspace callback down via the bl interface, etc. With backlight for example, does handling it in the kernel driver as per your patch prevent userspace from seeing the brightness up/down event? Wouldn't that break things like OSD brightness displays and such?
