Send a uevent to indicate a device change whenever we dock or
undock, so that userspace may now check the dock status via sysfs.

Add 2 sysfs files for user interface.
1) docked - 1/0 (read only) - indicates whether the software believes the
laptop is docked in a docking station.
2) undock - (write only) - writing to this file causes the software to
initiate an undock request to the firmware.

Make the dock station driver a platform device driver so that
we can create sysfs entries under /sys/device/platform.

Use a mutex instead of a spinlock for locking the
hotplug list because we need to call into the ACPI
subsystem which might sleep.

Remove uevent dock notifications. There are no consumers
of these events at present, and uevents are likely not the
correct way to send this type of event anyway.
Until I get some kind of idea if anyone in userspace cares
about dock events, I will just not send any.

This reverts commit a5e1b94008.
Adrian Bunk points out that it has build errors, and apparently no
maintenance. Throw it out.

Create a driver which lives in the acpi subsystem to handle dock events.
This driver is not an "ACPI" driver, because acpi drivers require that the
object be present when the driver is loaded.
