Hi there,

=> requires the following to make brightness control keys work as expected
$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf options i915 invert_brightness=1
I highly doubt this. This might be true for some gen4 models, but not Valleyview. Please file a bug on DRM/Intel at [1], and describe the symptoms.

tested on ubuntu 14.04 (with added xorg conf below)
$ cat /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf Section "Device" Identifier "card0" Driver "intel" Option "Backlight" "intel_backlight" BusID "PCI:0:2:0" EndSection
Note that the same brightness inversion happened also on ubuntu 14.10 (vanilla install, no xorg conf required)
