Documentation - Create laptops sub-directory

There are currently various laptop drivers floating about with no central
place for their documentation, which is currently scattered around the top
level Documentation/ directory.

So, as a first step, lets create a Documentation sub-directory, and update
the relevant index files. The work of then moving the existing laptop
driver related documentation will then be handled later.

ACPI: thermal: buildfix for CONFIG_THERMAL=n

This fixes the build, but acpi_fan_add() still needs
to be updated to handle thermal_cooling_device_register()
returning NULL as a non-fatal condition.

cpuidle: build fix for non-x86

The last posted version of this patch gave compile error
on IA64. So, here goes yet another rewrite of the patch.

Convert cpu_idle_wait() to cpuidle_kick_cpus() which is
SMP-only, and gives error on non supported CPU.

Changes from last patch sent by Kevin:
Moved the definition of kick_cpus back to cpuidle.c from cpuidle.h:
* Having it in .h gives #error on archs which includes the header file without
actually having CPU_IDLE configured. To make it work in .h, we need one more
#ifdef around that code which makes it messy.
* Also, the function is only called from one file. So, it can be in declared
statically in .c rather than making it available to everyone who includes
the .h file.

acer-wmi: Fix backlight on AMW0 (V1) laptops

There is some leftover cruft from the old quirk infrastructure that causes
us to be unable to set the backlight on older laptops.

tc1100-wmi: Mark as experimental

tc1100-wmi has not undergone as much testing as acer-wmi, so it certainly
should be marked as experimental as well until we get more user feedback.

ACPI: SBS: Host controller must initialize before SBS.

In static case sbshc must be compiled ahead of sbs, so that
hc is configured first.
