[Bug 415023] Re: brightness is broken on MSI WIND U100

bogus keypress events

This would mean that userspace does not learn about brightness changes
at all, though. I. e. we couldn't give feedback in  the form of
notification bubbles, or update the brightness level in the brightness
applet, etc. Certainly not the end of the world, but AFAIUI this has
been the main reason why the key events are still present.

Of course it would be great if something would tell us that the keys are
already handled in hardware. hal-info did that before, but it seems that
g-p-m stopped making use of this.
