I threw printfs into acpi_video, not sure if that would work for both
vgapci or not.
I'm not sure if I wiped out my debug patches yet, I may have a patch.
Basically the idea is to figure out which paths in the DSDT are getting
attached to the vgapci devices.

This dsdt patch from Mitsuru Iwasaki illustrates fixing a similar issue
to X220 via a custom dsdt
http://people.freebsd.org/~iwasaki/acpi/tpx61.asl.diff

It seems like we could either try to find these paths on affected
models, or have a tunable override for acpi_video.
