[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 06/14] ACPI: video: Drop backlight_device_get_by_type() call from acpi_video_get_backlight_type()

Now that all kms drivers which register native/BACKLIGHT_RAW type backlight
devices on x86/ACPI boards call acpi_video_get_backlight_type(true), with
the native=true value getting cached, there no longer is a need to call
backlight_device_get_by_type(BACKLIGHT_RAW) to see if a native backlight
device is available.

Relying on the cached native_available value not only is simpler, it will
also work correctly in cases where then native backlight registration was
skipped because of the acpi_video_get_backlight_type() return value.
