It was only ever used by the ACPI video driver, and that only use case vanished over 3 years ago (see commit 677bd810, "ACPI video: remove output switching control".) So this is dead code and I guess we can remove it now.

Rafael, wait a minute. I just remembered that this last patch depends on another clean-up patch of mine which is not upstream yet: [PATCH 1/2] fujitsu-laptop: Drop unneeded include
List platform-driver-x86 doesn't seem to be archived anywhere so I can't point you to it. I will resend the patch with you in Cc so that you can include it in the series.
Thanks,
