ACPI: Fix selecting wrong ACPI fwnode for the iGPU on some Dell laptops
The Dell Latitude E6430 both with and without the optional NVidia dGPU
has a bug in its ACPI tables which is causing Linux to assign the wrong
ACPI fwnode / companion to the pci_device for the i915 iGPU.
Specifically under the PCI root bridge there are these 2 ACPI Device()s :
Scope (_SB.PCI0)
{
Device (GFX0)
{
Name (_ADR, 0x00020000) // _ADR: Address
}
...
Device (VID)
{
Name (_ADR, 0x00020000) // _ADR: Address
...
Method (_DOS, 1, NotSerialized) // _DOS: Disable Output Switching
{
VDP8 = Arg0
VDP1 (One, VDP8)
}
Method (_DOD, 0, NotSerialized) // _DOD: Display Output Devices
{
...
}
...
}
}
The non-functional GFX0 ACPI device is a problem, because this gets
returned as ACPI companion-device by acpi_find_child_device() for the iGPU.
This is a long standing problem and the i915 driver does use the ACPI
companion for some things, but works fine without it.
However since commit 63f534b8bad9 ("ACPI: PCI: Rework acpi_get_pci_dev()")
acpi_get_pci_dev() relies on the physical-node pointer in the acpi_device
and that is set on the wrong acpi_device because of the wrong
acpi_find_child_device() return. This breaks the ACPI video code,
leading to non working backlight control in some cases.
Add a type.backlight flag, mark ACPI video bus devices with this and make
find_child_checks() return a higher score for children with this flag set,
so that it picks the right companion-device.
