[PATCH] acpi/uevents: remove dock uevents

[Kristen Carlson Accardi]

Remove uevent dock notifications.  There are no consumers
of these events at present, and uevents are likely not the
correct way to send this type of event anyway.

Until I get some kind of idea if anyone in userspace cares
about dock events, I will just not send any.
