platform/x86: dell-*: Add a generic dell-laptop notifier chain
There are several cases where events handled in one of the dell-* drivers need to be propagated to another dell-* driver. This commit adds 3 generic functions: dell_laptop_register_notifier() dell_laptop_unregister_notifier() dell_laptop_call_notifier() It currently only defines 1 action: DELL_LAPTOP_KBD_BACKLIGHT_BRIGHTNESS_CHANGED Which is intended to propagate kbd_backlight_brightness_changed wmi events from dell-wmi to dell-laptop (which contains the actual kbd backlight driver). These functions are put in dell-smbios as both dell-wmi and dell-laptop use smbios functions and I do not want to put the notifier head in either driver, as that will make the 2 drivers depend on each other.
