3.16.7-ckt8 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede at redhat.com>

commit 6a3ef10bacb08860805e9053f919786dc34760ba upstream.

The L521X variant of the Dell XPS15 has integrated nvidia graphics, and
backlight control does not work properly when using the native interfaces.
