+Subject: [PATCH 04/14] asus-wmi: Add a no backlight quirk
+
+Some Asus motherboards for desktop PC-s export an acpi-video and
+an asus-wmi interface advertising backlight support. Add a quirk to allow
+to blacklist these so that desktop environments such as gnome don't start
+showing nonsense brightness controls.
