Log message:
disable acpivout brightness control on machines aware of Windows 8
On a HP ProBook 650 G1 acpivout backlight brightness control only works
if we don't claim to be Windows 8. If we don't claim to be Windows 8
_BCL gives 21 levels with increments of 5, otherwise 101 levels (0-100)
and a _BCM that does nothing. This is related to requirements Microsoft
has for Windows 8 and later hardware certification.
Having acpivout not fully attach lets inteldrm handle brightness ioctls.
Brightness control via physical buttons will require a new acpi driver
for the HP flavour of WMI.
Add Windows 10 2004 _OSI value to the list while here.

tested by kmos@ on 6460b and 6470b ProBooks which had the same problem
