backlight_device->sem has a very specific use as documented in the
header file. The external users of this are using it for a different
reason, to serialise access to the update_status() method.
backlight users were supposed to implement their own internal
serialisation of update_status() if needed but everyone is doing
things differently and incorrectly. Therefore add a global mutex to
take care of serialisation for everyone, once and for all.
Locking for get_brightness remains optional since most users don't
need it.
Also update the lcd class in a similar way.

Remove uneeded owner field from backlight_properties structure.
Nothing uses it and it is unlikely that it will ever be used. The
backlight class uses other means to ensure that nothing references
unloaded code.

Adds backlight support using backlight class. We now
change the brightness *and toggle the backlight !* via
/sys/class/backlight/asus-laptop/.
If the user switchs the backlight using the keyboard,
asus_hotk_notify looks for ATKD_LCD_OFF and ATKD_LCD_ON events,
and stores the right state into hotk->status and bd->props->power .

WLED and BLED are not handled like other leds (MLED, etc ..),
because sometime they also control the wlan/bluetooth device.
If the method for wireless_status is found, it's used to get the
status, otherwise hotk->status is used. We also use the HWRS
method, which tell if the bluetooth/wlan device is present or not.
This patch show why we need a ASUS_SET_DEVICE_ATTR macro : if
there is a bluetooth device, /sys/dev.../asus-laptop/bluetooth
is usable, else it's not but it's clean.

Add led support, using generic led class. Thomas Tuttle's patch
<http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/6/247> was very usefull. We use
hotk->status to store led status because it's very hard to find
acpi method to get the right status... To reduce the code,
I use a lot of macro (ASUS_LED, ASUS_LED_REGISTER, etc ...),
because the code is the same for all leds ...

Adds the new driver and make ASUS_LAPTOP and ACPI_ASUS
incompatible. It may be strange to use ASUS_CREATE_DEVICE_ATTR
and ASUS_SET_DEVICE_ATTR now, but these macro will be very
usefull in next patchs. ASUS_HANDLE and ASUS_HANDLE_INIT comes
from IBM_HANDLE and IBM_HANDLE_INIT, with some modification,
and will also be used in next patchs.
