Hello,
to make sure that nothing will be broken I will try to explain current code. Variable acpi_video is global boolean (for this module) and when is set to true it is expected that ACPI generate brightness up/down key events via ACPI input device. When is acpi_video boolean variable is set to false then ACPI input device should not send brightness up/down keys to userspace. And dell-wmi.ko driver send those two keys via dell-wmi input device.
So please check that your change does not change above behaviour. Maybe it would make sense to rename "acpi_video" variable to something better.
