Hi,
Where is "struct display_properties" defined?
CC [M] drivers/acpi/video.o
drivers/acpi/video.c:183: error: field 'acpi_display_properties' has incomplete type
make[2]: *** [drivers/acpi/video.o] Error 1
Lots of style issues (see below).

Combine and place '*' immediately before the function name,

Where does the magic # 45 come from?
Can you use a #define or sizeof(X) for it instead?

Try to limit source lines to < 80 columns.

All of the help text (above & below) should be indented like the
