Hans de Goede ac78288fe0 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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
