>Description:
[This is reported by Mikael Höjd]

With acpi, acpiec and other acpi devices (acpibat etc.) configured,
Fn+? LCD brightness controll will stop to work after 30 seconds.

If only acpi and acpiec are configured, Fn+? works without any
problem.  If other devices (acpitz, acpibat etc.) are configured,
Fn+? stops working after once 'envstat -r' is invoked.

>How-To-Repeat:
Configure all acpi devices and boot, then 'envstat -r'

>Fix:
N/A
