For what it's worth, doing the above does prevent the regression for the
ASLE case, but for me with gen 2 hardware the brightness isn't quite
right after suspend/resume, while it is with my patch applied. So
assuming that there are no gen 2 systems with ASLE out there, the best
solution may be the remove the combination mode check for gen 2 hardware
and leave it for gen >=4. Would be nice if Jesse or Chris could confirm
that there are no gen 2 ASLE systems out there though.

I'm going camping, I'll send a patch next week.

Greetings,

Indan
