This patch changes some variables to avoid warnings from ninja-check.
We are basically moving some variables inside the conditionals where
such variables are being used, and we are checking the returned values
of some others.

Commit 2b74103547 ("toshiba_acpi: Remove bluetooth rfkill code")
removed bluetooth related code, however, the wireless defines were
not removed and are unused.
This patch simply removes those defines as there is no code using
them.

This patch changes the tr function second parameter from bool to u32,
to be on par with the rest of the TCI functions of the driver, and the
code was updated accordingly.
Also, the check for translective support was moved to the *add
function, as the {__get, set}_lcd_brightness functions make use of it.

Commit f11f999e98 ("toshiba_acpi: Refuse to load on machines with
buggy INFO implementations") denied loading on laptops with a WMI Event
GUID given that such laptops manage the hotkeys via that interface,
however, such laptops have a working Toshiba Configuration Interface
(TCI), and thus, such commit denied several supported features.
This patch avoids registering the input device and ignores all hotkey
events on laptops with such WMI Event GUID, making the supported
features found in those laptops to work.

There were previous attempts to "merge" the toshiba SMM module to the
toshiba_acpi one, they were trying to imitate what the old toshiba
module does, however, some models (TOS1900 devices) come with a
"crippled" implementation and do not provide all the "features" a
"genuine" Toshiba BIOS does.
This patch adds a new device called toshiba_acpi, which aim is to
enable userspace to access the SMM on Toshiba laptops via ACPI calls.
Creating a new convenience _IOWR command to access the SCI functions
by opening/closing the SCI internally to avoid buggy BIOS, while at
the same time providing backwards compatibility.
Older programs (and new) who wish to access the SMM on newer models
can do it by pointing their path to /dev/toshiba_acpi (instead of
/dev/toshiba) as the toshiba.h header was modified to reflect these
changes as well as adds all the toshiba_acpi paths and command,
however, it is strongly recommended to use the new IOCTL for any
SCI command to avoid any buggy BIOS.

Since the introduction of TOS1900 devices support to the driver, the
"keys" entry under the proc directory was broken, given that it only
handled TOS620X devices accordingly.
This patch adapts the code to show the hotkey values of TOS1900
devices too, and in case some programs are still using that interface,
hotkeys reporting should now work on these devices.

Merge tag 'module-builtin_driver-v4.1-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux
Pull module_platform_driver replacement from Paul Gortmaker:
"Replace module_platform_driver with builtin_platform driver in non
modules.
We see an increasing number of non-modular drivers using
modular_driver() type register functions. There are several downsides
to letting this continue unchecked:
- The code can appear modular to a reader of the code, and they won't
know if the code really is modular without checking the Makefile
and Kconfig to see if compilation is governed by a bool or
tristate.
- Coders of drivers may be tempted to code up an __exit function that
is never used, just in order to satisfy the required three args of
the modular registration function.
- Non-modular code ends up including the <module.h> which increases
CPP overhead that they don't need.
- It hinders us from performing better separation of the module init
code and the generic init code.
So here we introduce similar macros for builtin drivers. Then we
convert builtin drivers (controlled by a bool Kconfig) by making the
following type of mapping:
module_platform_driver() ---> builtin_platform_driver()
module_platform_driver_probe() ---> builtin_platform_driver_probe().
The set of drivers that are converted here are just the ones that
showed up as relying on an implicit include of <module.h> during a
pending header cleanup. So we convert them here vs adding an include
of <module.h> to non-modular code to avoid compile fails. Additonal
conversions can be done asynchronously at any time.
Once again, an unused module_exit function that is removed here
appears in the diffstat as an outlier wrt all the other changes"

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede
stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected
places perspective. The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are
quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because
they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the
majority of cases.
From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream
revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is
the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be
based on it going forward. Also included is an update of the ACPI
device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects
the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support
wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA
device configuration object.
The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation
updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points.
There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it
adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before
Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on
the last minute for 4.1.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150515 including basic support
for ACPI 6 features: new ACPI tables introduced by ACPI 6 (STAO,
XENV, WPBT, NFIT, IORT), changes related to the other tables (DTRM,
FADT, LPIT, MADT), new predefined names (_BTH, _CR3, _DSD, _LPI,
_MTL, _PRR, _RDI, _RST, _TFP, _TSN), fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore,
Lv Zheng).
- ACPI device power management core code update to follow ACPI 6
which reflects the ACPI device power management implementation in
Windows (Rafael J Wysocki).
- rework of the backlight interface selection logic to reduce the
number of kernel command line options and improve the handling of
DMI quirks that may be involved in that and to make the code
generally more straightforward (Hans de Goede).
- fixes for the ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) driver related to the
handling of EC transactions (Lv Zheng).
- fix for a regression related to the ACPI resources management and
resulting from a recent change of ACPI initialization code ordering
(Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a system initialization regression related to ACPI
introduced during the 3.14 cycle and caused by running the code
that switches the platform over to the ACPI mode too early in the
initialization sequence (Rafael J Wysocki).
- support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object related to
DMA cache coherence (Suravee Suthikulpanit).
- ACPI/APEI fixes and cleanups (Jiri Kosina, Borislav Petkov).
- ACPI battery driver cleanups (Luis Henriques, Mathias Krause).
- ACPI processor driver cleanups (Hanjun Guo).
- cleanups and documentation update related to the ACPI device
properties interface based on _DSD (Rafael J Wysocki).
- ACPI device power management fixes (Rafael J Wysocki).
- assorted cleanups related to ACPI (Dominik Brodowski, Fabian
Frederick, Lorenzo Pieralisi, Mathias Krause, Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a long-standing issue causing General Protection Faults to
be generated occasionally on return to user space after resume from
ACPI-based suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 (Ingo Molnar).
- fix to make the suspend core code return -EBUSY consistently in all
cases when system suspend is aborted due to wakeup detection (Ruchi
Kandoi).
- support for automated device wakeup IRQ handling allowing drivers
to make their PM support more starightforward (Tony Lindgren).
- new tracepoints for suspend-to-idle tracing and rework of the
prepare/complete callbacks tracing in the PM core (Todd E Brandt,
Rafael J Wysocki).
- wakeup sources framework enhancements (Jin Qian).
- new macro for noirq system PM callbacks (Grygorii Strashko).
- assorted cleanups related to system suspend (Rafael J Wysocki).
- cpuidle core cleanups to make the code more efficient (Rafael J
Wysocki).
- powernv/pseries cpuidle driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat).
- cpufreq core fixes related to CPU online/offline that should reduce
the overhead of these operations quite a bit, unless the CPU in
question is physically going away (Viresh Kumar, Saravana Kannan).
- serialization of cpufreq governor callbacks to avoid race
conditions in some cases (Viresh Kumar).
- intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups (Doug Smythies, Prarit
Bhargava, Joe Konno).
- cpufreq driver (arm_big_little, cpufreq-dt, qoriq) updates (Sudeep
Holla, Felipe Balbi, Tang Yuantian).
- assorted cleanups in cpufreq drivers and core (Shailendra Verma,
Fabian Frederick, Wang Long).
- new Device Tree bindings for representing Operating Performance
Points (Viresh Kumar).
- updates for the common clock operations support code in the PM core
(Rajendra Nayak, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- PM domains core code update (Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Intel Knights Landing support for the RAPL (Running Average Power
Limit) power capping driver (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).
- fixes related to the floor frequency setting on Atom SoCs in the
RAPL power capping driver (Ajay Thomas).
- runtime PM framework documentation update (Ben Dooks).
- cpupower tool fix (Herton R Krzesinski)"

This is a preparation patch for the backlight interface selection logic
cleanup, there are 2 reasons to not always build the video_detect code
into the kernel:
1) In order for the video_detect.c to also deal with / select native
backlight interfaces on win8 systems, instead of doing this in video.c
where it does not belong, video_detect.c needs to call into the backlight
class code. Which cannot be done if it is builtin and the blacklight class
is not.
2) Currently all the platform/x86 drivers which have quirks to prefer
the vendor driver over acpi-video call acpi_video_unregister_backlight()
to remove the acpi-video backlight interface, this logic really belongs
in video_detect.c, which will cause video_detect.c to depend on symbols of
video.c and video.c already depends on video_detect.c symbols, so they
really need to be a single module.
Note that this commits make 2 changes so as to maintain 100% kernel
commandline compatibility:
1) The __setup call for the acpi_backlight= handling is moved to
acpi/util.c as __setup may only be used by code which is alwasy builtin
2) video.c is renamed to acpi_video.c so that it can be combined with
video_detect.c into video.ko
This commit also makes changes to drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig to ensure
that drivers which use acpi_video_backlight_support() from video_detect.c,
will not be built-in when acpi_video is not built in. This also changes
some "select" uses to "depends on" to avoid dependency loops.

acpi_video_dmi_demote_vendor() is going away as part of the cleanup of
the code for determinging which backlight class driver(s) to register.
The call to acpi_video_dmi_demote_vendor() was meant to undo the call to
acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor() when the gmux device is removed, this is
questionable though since the promote call sets a flag, not a counter, so
the demote call may undo a promoto done elsewhere. Moreover in practice
this is a nop since the gmux device is never removed, and the flag is only
checked when acpi/video.ko gets loaded, so even if the user manually
removes apple-gmux the demote call is still a nop as video.ko will already
have loaded by this time.
Also note that none of the other users of acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor()
use acpi_video_dmi_demote_vendor().
If we ever encounter a system with a gmux where the acpi-video interface
should be used, then the proper fix would be to dmi-blacklist the gmux
driver on that system.

acpi_video_unregister() not only unregisters the acpi-video backlight
interface but also unregisters the acpi video bus event listener, causing
e.g. brightness hotkey presses to no longer generate keypress events.
The unregistering of the acpi video bus event listener usually is
undesirable, which by itself is a good reason to switch to
acpi_video_unregister_backlight().
Another problem with using acpi_video_unregister() rather then using
acpi_video_unregister_backlight() is that on systems with an intel video
opregion (most systems) and a broken_acpi_video quirk, whether or not
the acpi video bus event listener actually gets unregistered depends on
module load ordering:
Scenario a:
1) acpi/video.ko gets loaded (*), does not do acpi_video_register as there
is an intel opregion.
2) intel.ko gets loaded, calls acpi_video_register() which registers both
the listener and the acpi backlight interface
3) samsung-laptop.ko gets loaded, calls acpi_video_unregister() causing
both the listener and the acpi backlight interface to unregister
Scenario b:
1) acpi/video.ko gets loaded (*), does not do acpi_video_register as there
is an intel opregion.
2) samsung-laptop.ko gets loaded, calls acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor(),
calls acpi_video_unregister(), which is a nop since acpi_video_register
has not yet been called
2) intel.ko gets loaded, calls acpi_video_register() which registers
the listener, but does not register the acpi backlight interface due to
the call to the preciding call to acpi_video_dmi_promote_vendor()
*) acpi/video.ko always loads first as both other modules depend on it.
So we end up with or without an acpi video bus event listener depending
on module load ordering, not good.
Switching to using acpi_video_unregister_backlight() means that independ
of ordering we will always have an acpi video bus event listener fixing
this.
Note that this commit means that systems without an intel video opregion,
and systems which were hitting scenario a wrt module load ordering, are
now getting an acpi video bus event listener while before they were not!
On some systems this may cause the brightness hotkeys to start generating
keypresses while before they were not (good), while on other systems this
may cause the brightness hotkeys to generate multiple keypress events for
a single press (not so good). Since on most systems the acpi video bus is
the canonical source for brightness events I believe that the latter case
will needs to be handled on a case by case basis by filtering out the
duplicate keypresses at the other source for them.

This driver is configured with a Kconfig option that is
declared as a bool. Hence it is not possible for the code
to be built as modular. However the code is currently using
the module_platform_driver() macro for driver registration.
While this currently works, we really don't want to be including
the module.h header in non-modular code, which we'll be forced
to do, pending some upcoming code relocation from init.h into
module.h. So we fix it now by using the non-modular equivalent.
And since we've already established that the code is non-modular,
we can completely drop any code relating to module_exit.
