As a result, we will not create a backlight device for it while we should. Solve this problem by special case the firmware that has 8+ output devices in that if we see such a firmware, we do not test if the device is in _DOD list. The creation of the backlight device will also enable the firmware to emit events on backlight hotkey press when the acpi_osi= cmdline option is specified on those affected ASUS laptops.
