--- Comment #3 from Jani Nikula <jani.nikula at intel.com> ---
A few additional things to consider.

First, does 5% brightness running a kernel before the offending commit
correspond to lowest brightness running a kernel after the offending commit?

Second, there might be a catch here. The brightness UI, whichever it may be,
might provide you with an arbitrary number of steps. The UI might not let you
choose the lowest non-zero brightness. E.g. going up from 0, it probably jumps
to something other than 1.

See if this gives you more desirable results:

# echo 1 > /sys/class/brightness/intel_backlight/brightness
