The subject and this paragraph refer to VLV/CHV but this isn't really
specific to those platforms.

IIUC this bit won't be true if you add the backlight.enabled check as I
suggested earlier.

I have a feeling we may get these requests from the BIOS whenever. In
theory we should use the opregion ARDY field or somesuch to communicate
whether we're ready or not (we always say we're ready like a scout) but
even so we can't trust the BIOS to listen to what we say. Long story
short we should probably leave this check in.

With those fixed this LGTM.

BR,
Jani.
