Sorry, it may be not clear: intel_panel_get_backlight(dev) returns 4882 but
screen is turned off. But calling "intel_panel_actually_set_backlight"
unconditionally fixes the problem.

Also, I don't understand, how backlight control even works on machines where
"setting the backlight level _after_ enabling it seems
to reset it somehow". Maybe the problem with these machines isn't there?
