platform/surface: Add Driver to set up lid GPEs on MS Surface device
Conventionally, wake-up events for a specific device, in our case the lid device, are managed via the ACPI _PRW field. While this does not seem strictly necessary based on ACPI spec, the kernel disables GPE wakeups to avoid non-wakeup interrupts preventing suspend by default and only enables GPEs associated via the _PRW field with a wake-up capable device. This behavior has been introduced in commit f941d3e4 ("ACPI: EC / PM: Disable non-wakeup GPEs for suspend-to-idle") and is described in more detail in its commit message. Unfortunately, on MS Surface devices, there is no _PRW field present on the lid device, thus no GPE is associated with it, and therefore the GPE responsible for sending the status-change notification to the lid gets disabled during suspend, making it impossible to wake the device via the lid. This patch introduces a pseudo-device and respective driver which, based on some DMI matching, marks the corresponding GPE of the lid device for wake and enables it during suspend. The behavior of this driver models the behavior of the ACPI/PM core for normal wakeup GPEs, properly declared via the _PRW field.
