[Impact]
Current driver fails to parse VBT 234+ and gets wrong brightness levels.
It leads to screen dim completely when brightness is set to lowest.

[Fix]
We need the commits to parse VBT 234+
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/394304/

[Test]
Verified on Dell machines

[Where problems could occur]
The patches are simple and with a separate flow control for VBT 234,
should have no impact for current brightness control.
