ACPI: video: Add backlight=native quirk for Dell OptiPlex 5480 AIO
Dell All In One (AIO) models released after 2017 may use a backlight
controller board connected to an UART.
In DSDT this uart port will be defined as:
Name (_HID, "DELL0501")
Name (_CID, EisaId ("PNP0501")
The Dell OptiPlex 5480 AIO has an ACPI device for one of its UARTs with
the above _HID + _CID. Loading the dell-uart-backlight driver fails with
the following errors:
[ 18.261353] dell_uart_backlight serial0-0: Timed out waiting for response.
[ 18.261356] dell_uart_backlight serial0-0: error -ETIMEDOUT: getting firmware version
[ 18.261359] dell_uart_backlight serial0-0: probe with driver dell_uart_backlight failed with error -110
Indicating that there is no backlight controller board attached to
the UART, while the GPU's native backlight control method does work.
Add a quirk to use the GPU's native backlight control method on this model.
