Title:
Various Toshiba laptops - brightness controls work on first boot, but
do nothing after suspend/resume to RAM.

Bug description:
Overview -
This bug affects many Toshiba laptops including R700, R705, R800,
R830, R835, R840, R850, Z930 models - please update this description
if your model is also affected, but make sure the symptoms match
exactly.
The symptoms are that brightness control operates normally when the
system is first booted, but after a suspend-to-RAM and resume cycle
the brightness controls have no effect.
After a normal reboot, or hibernate & resume cycle, the brightness
controls operate normally again.
This bug is tracked for the kernel at:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21012
And for Debian at:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=599768
Please try to keep all info together and pass any progress to the
upstream trackers.
Original report for #935778 follows:
On my Toshiba R840, the brightness controls work fine on first boot,
but do nothing after suspend/resume. This is particularly frustrating
if I suspend with the screen at all dimmed, because once I resume, I
have no way of increasing the brightness short of a reboot.
