[help] Implementing AppleBacklightInjector

It says GFX0 must be renamed to IGPU. I used the "Rename GFX0 to IGPU" patch in the RehabMan maciASL Laptop Patches repo. I applied it to all files containing "GFX0". that is:

• DSDT.aml
• SSDT-6.aml
• SSDT-7.aml
• SSDT-HDMI-HD4600+.aml

All compile successfully except SSDT-6.aml which returns error "unexpected PARSEOP_INTEGER", giving me a kernel panic.

Renames are best done in config.plist/ACPI/DSDT/Patches.
See guide for good starter plists (they already have that rename).

For ACPI patching basics, read here:

Key points:
- Do not apply renames that are already handled in config.plist
- use config.plist/ACPI/AutoMerge=true
- only place SSDTs in ACPI/patched that actually need patching
- use latest RehabMan Clover build
- delete all files from ACPI/origin and re-extract with F4 in Clover to get correct names for the SSDTs
- do not use SortedOrder
- do not use DropOem=true
