Some system's ACPI video backlight control interface is broken and the
native backlight control interface should be used by default. This patch
sets the use_native_backlight parameter to true for those systems so
that video backlight control interface will not be created. For detailed
models that are added here, reference the following list.

Note that the user specified kernel cmdline option will always have the
highest priority, i.e. if use_native_backlight=0 is specified and the
system is in the DMI table, the video module will not skip registering
backlight interface for it.

We're also carrying ab2f48247d81e2432af6bc14ed213899f1133f61 and
0b23c20568280e2bbe599fef8f07ffd47457f31c which overlap with some of the
machines here. Most or all of those machines could likely be switched
over to quirks for use_native_backlight I suspect.

I think I saw other patches which hinted that acpi backlight control being
broken seemed to become a defacto standard with a lot of the newer machines. So
it sounds unfortunately like the right approach.
