In finally managed to resolve the issue for my T430s. I had to add the
following boot options to /etc/default/grub:

acpi_osi='!Windows 2012'
- This makes the OSD work properly with 8 brightness steps

video.brightness_switch_enabled=0
- This allows you to have 15 brightness steps (working OSD also included)

The following comments seem to be related:

Maybe it's still a regression?
