Looking on Google for the offending commit, I bumped into the following bug
report:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59785

The last patch attached to that ticket does fix the issue for me. However I'm
not sure if that is the better way to do it.

I was able to patch kernel 3.9.0-rc6 and tested it to be working correctly (at
least when it comes to the backlight issue).

I hope the patch can be quickly applied, if there is no better way to do so.

Regards,


Fede
