Hello,

on my new Acer Nitro 5 (AN515-43-R8BF) backlight and actual_backlight value
in sysfs mismatch. When backlight is 0 actual_backlight is still 5140.

root at nitro5:/sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_bl1# cat brightness
255
root at nitro5:/sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_bl1# cat actual_brightness
65535
root at nitro5:/sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_bl1# echo 0 >brightness
root at nitro5:/sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_bl1# cat actual_brightness
5140

The laptop has a hybrid setup Picasso+Polaris11.
