Replace strcpy() with strscpy() in the ACPI backlight code.

strcpy() has been deprecated because it is generally unsafe, so help to
eliminate if from the kernel source.

<title>ACPI: video: Handle fetching EDID that is longer than 256 bytes</title>

<content type='text'>
The ACPI specification allows for an EDID to be up to 512 bytes but
the _DDC EDID fetching code will only try up to 256 bytes.

Modify the code to instead start at 512 bytes and work it's way
down instead.

As _DDC is now called up to 4 times on a machine debugging messages
are noisier than necessary.  Decrease from info to debug.

The Colorful X15 AT 23 ACPI video-bus device report spurious
ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_CYCLE events resulting in spurious KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE
events being reported to userspace (and causing trouble there) when
an external screen plugged in.

Add a quirk setting the report_key_events mask to
REPORT_BRIGHTNESS_KEY_EVENTS so that the ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_CYCLE
events will be ignored, while still reporting brightness up/down
hotkey-presses to userspace normally.

<title>ACPI: video: Use acpi_video_device for cooling-dev driver data</title>

The acpi_video code was storing the acpi_video_device as driver_data
in the acpi_device children of the acpi_video_bus acpi_device.

But the acpi_video driver only binds to the bus acpi_device.
It uses, but does not bind to, the children. Since it is not
the driver it should not be using the driver_data of the children's
acpi_device-s.

Since commit 0d16710146a1 ("ACPI: bus: Set driver_data to NULL every
time .add() fails") the childen's driver_data ends up getting set
to NULL after a driver fails to bind to the children leading to a NULL
pointer deref in video_get_max_state when registering the cooling-dev:

If acpi_get_parent() called in acpi_video_dev_register_backlight()
fails, for example, because acpi_ut_acquire_mutex() fails inside
acpi_get_parent), this can lead to incorrect (uninitialized)
acpi_parent handle being passed to acpi_get_pci_dev() for detecting
the parent pci device.

Check acpi_get_parent() result and set parent device only in case of success.

<content type='text'>
Since commit 3dbc80a3e4c5 ("ACPI: video: Make backlight class device
registration a separate step (v2)") acpi_video# backlights are no longer
automatically registered. Instead they now only get registered when
the GPU/KMS driver calls acpi_video_register_backlight() which it only
does when it has detected an internal LCD panel.

This fixes the issue of sometimes a non-working acpi_video# backlight
showing up on Desktops / HDMI-sticks without an internal LCD display
in a more complete and robust manner then the LCD flag check which
gets enabled by the should_check_lcd_flag() helper does.

Therefor the should_check_lcd_flag() helper is no longer necessary.

The lcd_only flag itself is still necessary to only register
a single backlight device (for the right output) on the ESPRIMO Mobile
M9410 which has 2 ACPI video connector nodes with a _BCM control method,
which is the issue for which the flag was originally introduced in
commit e50b9be14ab0 ("ACPI / video: only register backlight for LCD
device").

Commit 89c290ea7589 ("ACPI: video: Put ACPI video and its child devices
into D0 on boot") introduced calling acpi_device_fix_up_power_extended()
on the video card for which the ACPI video bus is the companion device.

This unnecessarily touches the power-state of the GPU itself, while
the issue it tries to address only requires calling _PS0 on the child
devices.

Touching the power-state of the GPU itself is causing suspend / resume
issues on e.g. a Lenovo ThinkPad W530.

Instead use acpi_device_fix_up_power_children(), which only touches
the child devices, to fix this.

Commit 89c290ea7589 ("ACPI: video: Put ACPI video and its child devices
into D0 on boot") introduced calling acpi_device_fix_up_power_extended()
on the video card for which the ACPI video bus is the companion device.

This unnecessarily touches the power-state of the GPU itself, while
the issue it tries to address only requires calling _PS0 on the child
devices.

Touching the power-state of the GPU itself is causing suspend / resume
issues on e.g. a Lenovo ThinkPad W530.

Instead use acpi_device_fix_up_power_children(), which only touches
the child devices, to fix this.

<title>ACPI: bus: Add context argument to acpi_dev_install_notify_handler()</title>

Add void *context arrgument to the list of arguments of
acpi_dev_install_notify_handler() and modify it to pass that argument
as context to acpi_install_notify_handler() instead of its first
argument which is problematic in general (for example, if platform
drivers used it, they would rather get struct platform_device pointers
or pointers to their private data from the context arguments of their
notify handlers).

Make all of the current callers of acpi_dev_install_notify_handler()
take this change into account so as to avoid altering the general
functionality.

<title>ACPI: video: Fix NULL pointer dereference in acpi_video_bus_add()</title>

acpi_video_bus_add_notify_handler() could free video-&gt;input and
set it to NULL on failure, but this failure would be missed in its
caller acpi_video_bus_add(). As a result, when an error happens in
acpi_dev_install_notify_handler(), acpi_video_bus_add() would call
acpi_video_bus_remove_notify_handler(), where a potential NULL pointer
video-&gt;input is dereferenced in input_unregister_device().

Fix this by adding a return value check and adjusting the following
error handling code.
