On Apple laptops with an Apple GMUX using this for brightness control, should take precedence of any other brightness control methods. Add apple-gmux detection to acpi_video_get_backlight_type() using the already existing apple_gmux_present() helper function. This will allow removig the (ab)use of: acpi_video_set_dmi_backlight_type(acpi_backlight_vendor); Inside the apple-gmux driver.
