ACPI / video: Quirk initial backlight level 0
Some firmware doesn't initialize initial backlight level to a proper
value and _BQC will return 0 on first time evaluation. We used to be
able to detect such incorrect value with our code logic, as value 0
normally isn't a valid value in _BCL. But with the introduction of Win8,
firmware begins to fill _BCL with values from 0 to 100, now 0 becomes
a valid value but that value will make user's screen black. This patch
test initial _BQC for value 0, if such a value is returned, do not use
it.
