ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: fix brightness dimming control bug
ibm-acpi and thinkpad-acpi did not know about bit 5 of the EC backlight level control register (EC 0x31), so it was always forced to zero on any writes. This would disable the BIOS option to *not* use a dimmer backlight level scale while on battery, and who knows what else (there are two other control bits of unknown function). Bit 5 controls the "reduce backlight levels when on battery" optional functionality (active low). Bits 6 and 7 are better left alone as well, instead of being forced to zero.
