ACPI: blacklist win8 OSI for buggy laptops
Since v3.7 the acpi backlight driver doesn't work correctly in several machines because ACPI code has different code for Windows 8, and the rest. The commit ea45ea7 (in v3.11-rc2) tried to fix this problem by using the intel backlight driver, however it introduced several other issues in different machines. This patch fixes both regressions by blacklisting the win8 OSI, so we are back to v3.6 behavior, and it should remain that way until the intel backlight driver is fixed. Since v3.7, users have been forced to fix the initial regression by modifying the boot arguments (acpi_osi="!Windows 2012"). Once the Intel backlight driver works correctly for all machines, this blacklist can be removed and that driver can be used instead.
