Subject: [PATCH] ACPI / video: Add "Asus UL30VT" to ACPI video detect
 blacklist

commit d0c2ce16bec0afa6013b4c5220ca4c9c67210215 upstream.

The ACPI video driver can't control backlight correctly on
Asus UL30VT.  Vendor driver (asus-laptop) can work.  This patch is to
add "Asus UL30VT" to ACPI video detect blacklist in order to use
asus-laptop for video control on the "Asus UL30VT" rather than ACPI
video driver.
