ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: make the input event mode the default

Make the input layer the default way to deal with thinkpad-acpi hot keys,
but add a kernel config option to retain the old way of doing things.

This means we map a lot more keys to useful stuff by default, and also that
we enable hot key handling by default on driver load (like Windows does).

The documentation for proper use of this resource is also updated.

+In a ThinkPad, the ACPI HKEY handler is responsible for comunicating
+some important events and also keyboard hot key presses to the operating

+firmware that such a driver is present, and modifies how the ThinkPad
+firmware will behave in many situations.
+
+When the hotkey feature is enabled and the hot key mask is set (see
+below), the various hot keys either generate ACPI events in the
 following format:
 
 	ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 0000xxxx
 
-The last four digits vary depending on the key combination pressed.

+or events over the input layer.  The input layer support accepts the
+standard IOCTLs to remap the keycodes assigned to each hotkey.
 
 When the input device is open, the driver will suppress any ACPI hot key
 events that get translated into a meaningful input layer event, in order
 to avoid sending duplicate events to userspace.  Hot keys that are
-mapped to KEY_RESERVED are not translated, and will always generate only
-ACPI hot key event, and no input layer events.
-
-The bit mask allows some control over which hot keys generate ACPI
-events. Not all bits in the mask can be modified. Not all bits that can
-be modified do anything. Not all hot keys can be individually controlled
-by the mask. Some models do not support the mask at all. On those
-models, hot keys cannot be controlled individually.
-
-Note that enabling ACPI events for some keys prevents their default
-behavior. For example, if events for Fn-F5 are enabled, that key will no
-longer enable/disable Bluetooth by itself. This can still be done from
-an acpid handler for the ibm/hotkey event.
-
-On some models, even enabling/disabling the entire hot key feature may
-change the way some keys behave (e.g. in a T43, Fn+F4 will generate an
-button/sleep ACPI event if hot keys are disabled, and it will ignore its
-mask when hot keys are enabled, so the key always does something.  On a
-X40, Fn+F4 respects its mask status, but generates the button/sleep ACPI
-event if masked off).
-
-Note also that not all Fn key combinations are supported through
-ACPI. For example, on the X40, the brightness, volume and "Access IBM"
-buttons do not generate ACPI events even with this driver. They *can*

+The hot key bit mask allows some control over which hot keys generate
+events.  If a key is "masked" (bit set to 0 in the mask), the firmware
+will handle it.  If it is "unmasked", it signals the firmware that
+thinkpad-acpi would prefer to handle it, if the firmware would be so
+kind to allow it (and it often doesn't!).

+models, hot keys cannot be controlled individually.  The behaviour of
+the mask is, therefore, higly dependent on the ThinkPad model.
+
+Note that unmasking some keys prevents their default behavior.  For
+example, if Fn+F5 is unmasked, that key will no longer enable/disable
+Bluetooth by itself.
