ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: support 16 levels of brightness (v3)

Lenovo ThinkPads often have 16 brightness levels in EC, and not just eight
levels like older ThinkPads.  They also have standard ACPI backlight
brightness control.

We detect the number of brightness levels by the presence of a BCLL package
with 16 entries.  If BCLL is not there, we assume eight levels (Z6*).  If
it is there, but it doesn't have 16 entries, we assume eight levels (T60).
Otherwise we assume sixteen levels (T61, X61, etc).

We don't use _BCL because it can have side-effects in thinkpads.  Thanks to
Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> for notifying me of this potential
problem.

Using the standard ACPI backlight brightness control *instead* of the
native thinkpad backlight control is a better idea, though.  A different
patch will take care of this.

This feature allows software control of the LCD brightness on ThinkPad
models which don't have a hardware brightness slider.
It has some limitations: the LCD backlight cannot be actually turned on or off
by this interface, and in many ThinkPad models, the "dim while on battery"
functionality will be enabled by the BIOS when this interface is used, and
cannot be controlled.

The backlight control has eight levels, ranging from 0 to 7. Some of the
levels may not be distinct.
On IBM (and some of the earlier Lenovo) ThinkPads, the backlight control
has eight brightness levels, ranging from 0 to 7. Some of the levels
may not be distinct. Later Lenovo models that implement the ACPI
display backlight brightness control methods have 16 levels, ranging
from 0 to 15.
There are two interfaces to the firmware for brightness control, EC and CMOS.
To select which one should be used, use the brightness_mode module parameter:
brightness_mode=1 selects EC mode, brightness_mode=2 selects CMOS mode,
brightness_mode=3 selects both EC and CMOS. The driver tries to autodetect
which interface to use.
There are two interfaces to the firmware for direct brightness control,
EC and CMOS. To select which one should be used, use the
brightness_mode module parameter: brightness_mode=1 selects EC mode,
brightness_mode=2 selects CMOS mode, brightness_mode=3 selects both EC
and CMOS. The driver tries to autodetect which interface to use.
When display backlight brightness controls are available through the
standard ACPI interface, it is best to use it instead of this direct
ThinkPad-specific interface.

power management events can temporarily increase the current
