[PATCH v2 04/11] platform/x86: asus-wmi: Add quirk to force DSTS WMI method detection

[Yurii Pavlovskyi]

The DSTS method detection fails, as nothing is returned if method is not
defined in WMNB. As a result the control of keyboard backlight is not
functional for TUF Gaming series laptops (at the time the only
functionality of the driver on this model implemented with WMI methods).

Patch was tested on a newer TUF Gaming FX505GM and older K54C model.

FX505GM:
Method (WMNB, 3, Serialized)
{ ...
    If ((Local0 == 0x53545344))
    {
        ...
        Return (Zero)
    }
    ...
    // No return
}

K54C:
Method (WMNB, 3, Serialized)
{ ...
    If ((Local0 == 0x53545344))
    {
        ...
        Return (0x02)
    }
    ...
    Return (0xFFFFFFFE)
}

The non-existing method ASUS_WMI_METHODID_DSTS=0x53544344 (actually it is
DCTS in little endian ASCII) is selected in asus->dsts.

One way to fix this would be to call both for every known device ID until
some answers - this would increase module load time.

Another option is to check some device that is known to exist on every
model - none known at the time.

Last option, which is implemented, is to check for presence of the
ASUS7000 device in ACPI tree (it is a dummy device), which is the
condition used for loading the vendor driver for this model. This might
not fix every affected model ever produced, but it likely does not
introduce any regressions. The patch introduces a quirk that is enabled
when ASUS7000 is found.

Scope (_SB)
{
    Device (ATK)
    {
        Name (_HID, "ASUS7000")  // _HID: Hardware ID
    }
}
