ACPI: video: force native backlight on HP OMEN 16 (8A44)
The HP OMEN 16 Gaming Laptop (board name 8A44) has a mux-less hybrid GPU configuration with AMD Rembrandt (Radeon 680M) and NVIDIA GA104 (RTX 3070 Ti). The internal eDP panel is wired to the AMD iGPU. When Nouveau loads without GSP firmware, the ACPI video backlight device (acpi_video0) gets registered alongside the native AMD backlight (amdgpu_bl2). In this state, writes to amdgpu_bl2 update the software brightness value but fail to change the physical panel brightness. Force native backlight to prevent acpi_video0 from registering. Confirmed that booting with acpi_backlight=native resolves the issue.
