    backlight: Avoid restoring brightness to an unreadably dim level
    
    Some systems turn the backlight all the way off at the lowest levels.
    Clamp saved brightness to at least 1 or 5% of max_brightness.  This
    avoids preserving an unreadably dim screen, which would otherwise force
    the user to disable state restoration.

    backlight: Fix copy/paste error printing an unrelated error code
    
    udev_device_get_sysattr_value returns NULL on failure, but doesn't
    provide an error code; thus, when printing an error from it, don't print
    an unrelated error code from a previous call.
