    Revert commit 6276e53f (ACPI / video: Add force_native quirk for
    HP Pavilion dv6).
    
    In the commit message for the quirk this revert removes I wrote:
    
    "Note that there are quite a few HP Pavilion dv6 variants, some
    woth ATI and some with NVIDIA hybrid gfx, both seem to need this
    quirk to have working backlight control. There are also some versions
    with only Intel integrated gfx, these may not need this quirk, but it
    should not hurt there."
    
    Unfortunately that seems wrong, I've already received 2 reports of
    this commit causing regressions on some dv6 variants (at least one
    of which actually has a nvidia GPU). So it seems that HP has made a
    mess here by using the same model-name both in marketing and in the
    DMI data for many different variants. Some of which need
    acpi_backlight=native for functional backlight control (as the
    quirk this commit reverts was doing), where as others are broken by
    it. So lets get back to the old sitation so as to avoid regressing
    on models which used to work without any kernel cmdline arguments
    before.
