Bug fix for GenericBrightness.kext

If you kept using GenericBrightness.kext for your laptop screen brightness (instead of using either an automatic patch of AppleBacklight by WhateverGreen or a kext injector), it might have failed during the last update to Mojave 10.14.4, causing a KP on boot. This was a bug in the kext. It has been corrected and the new version can be found here:

This kext is still useful if your laptop screen does not use Intel registers (as needed for patched AppleBacklight) but have OEM ACPI methods that actually works.
