drivers:misc: ti-st: move from rfkill to sysfs

The communication between ST KIM and UIM was interfaced
over the /dev/rfkill device node.
Move the interface to a simpler less abusive sysfs entry
mechanism and document it in Documentation/ABI/testing/
under sysfs-platform-kim.

Shared transport driver would now read the UART details
originally received by bootloader or firmware as platform
data.
The data read will be shared over sysfs entries for the user-space
UIM or other n/w manager/plugins to be read, and assist the driver
by opening up the UART, setting the baud-rate and installing the
line discipline.

KernelVersion: 2.6.38
Contact: "Pavan Savoy" <pavan_savoy@ti.com>
Description:
Name of the UART device at which the WL128x chip
is connected. example: "/dev/ttyS0".
The device name flows down to architecture specific board
initialization file from the SFI/ATAGS bootloader
firmware. The name exposed is read from the user-space
dameon and opens the device when install is requested.
What: /sys/devices/platform/kim/baud_rate
Date: January 2010
KernelVersion: 2.6.38
Contact: "Pavan Savoy" <pavan_savoy@ti.com>
Description:
The maximum reliable baud-rate the host can support.
Different platforms tend to have different high-speed
UART configurations, so the baud-rate needs to be set
locally and also sent across to the WL128x via a HCI-VS
command. The entry is read and made use by the user-space
daemon when the ldisc install is requested.

KernelVersion: 2.6.38
Contact: "Pavan Savoy" <pavan_savoy@ti.com>
Description:
The WL128x makes use of flow control mechanism, and this
entry most often should be 1, the host's UART is required
to have the capability of flow-control, or else this
entry can be made use of for exceptions.
What: /sys/devices/platform/kim/install
Date: January 2010
KernelVersion: 2.6.38
Contact: "Pavan Savoy" <pavan_savoy@ti.com>
Description:
When one of the protocols Bluetooth, FM or GPS wants to make
use of the shared UART transport, it registers to the shared
transport driver, which will signal the user-space for opening,
configuring baud and install line discipline via this sysfs
entry. This entry would be polled upon by the user-space
daemon managing the UART, and is notified about the change
by the sysfs_notify. The value would be '1' when UART needs
to be opened/ldisc installed, and would be '0' when UART
is no more required and needs to be closed.
