ACPI / video: Load the module even if ACPI is disabled

commit 6e17cb12881ba8d5e456b89f072dc6b70048af36 upstream.

i915.ko depends upon the acpi/video.ko module and so refuses to load if
ACPI is disabled at runtime if for example the BIOS is broken beyond
repair. acpi/video provides an optional service for i915.ko and so we
should just allow the modules to load, but do no nothing in order to let
the machines boot correctly.
