[PATCH v2] dell-wmi: Update code for processing WMI events

From: Pali RohÃr
Date: Tue Nov 11 2014 - 14:21:44 EST


WMI buffer can contains more events. First value in buffer is length of event
followed by data of specified length. After that is next length and next data.
When length is zero then there is no more events in bufffer.

This patch adds support for processing all events in buffer (not only first)
and parse more event types (not only hotkey events). Because of variable length
of events sometimes BIOS fills more hotkeys (or other values) into single WMI
event. In this case this patch process also these multiple hotkeys (and not
only first one).

Some event types are just ignored because kernel is not interested for them
(e.g. NIC Link status, battery unplug, ...).

This patch is based on DSDT table from Dell Latitude E6440. Code should be
backward compatible so will process other events of old types same as before
this patch.

This patch also fixes problem when in kernel log are written messages about
unknown WMI events. Now all know events are parsed and those which are not
interesting for kernel are dropped without unknown message.
