Linux kernel will, as documented in drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c, report changes to a backlights brightness as a uevent (ACTION=change). systemd-udev will consume the uevent, match on this rule and try to activate the systemd-backlight service for the backlight. BUT when systemd is not compiled with backlight support, this will lead to failure that is reported in the journal. Since the failure to activate systemd-backlight and subsequent failure log entry happens on every backlight brightness change, we found the resulting logspam during regular operation excessive and came up with this patch to mitigate it. The conditional is also extended to "*kbd_backlight" match, since even though we did not investigate to see if the logspam would be similar, the unconditional match to activate systemd-backlight here would also not make sense when the feature is not compiled in.
