<pre>i was actually already aware of that commit. unfortunately it doesn't seem to
work on the 2,1 macbook. it also seems to have been backported to 3.15 in the
fedora kernel: <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1118969">https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1118969</a>
i haven't tested 3.16 specifically but 3.17 still has the problem.
i looked around and some other devices with the same problem seem to have
quirks applied. i'm attaching a patch which applies the
'quirk_backlight_present' for the 2,1 macbook. i hope this is the proper way to
do it.</pre>
