[PATCH 4/5] platform/x86: intel-vbtn: Also handle tablet-mode switch on "Detachable" and "Portable" chassis-types
From: Hans de Goede

Commit de9647efeaa9 ("platform/x86: intel-vbtn: Only activate tablet mode
switch on 2-in-1's") added a DMI chassis-type check to avoid accidentally
reporting SW_TABLET_MODE = 1 to userspace on laptops.
Some devices with a detachable keyboard and using the intel-vbnt (INT33D6)
interface to report if they are in tablet mode (keyboard detached) or not,
report 32 / "Detachable" as chassis-type, e.g. the HP Pavilion X2 series.
Other devices with a detachable keyboard and using the intel-vbnt (INT33D6)
interface to report SW_TABLET_MODE, report 8 / "Portable" as chassis-type.
The Dell Venue 11 Pro 7130 is an example of this.
Extend the DMI chassis-type check to also accept Portables and Detachables
so that the intel-vbtn driver will report SW_TABLET_MODE on these devices.
Note the chassis-type check was originally added to avoid a false-positive
tablet-mode report on the Dell XPS 9360 laptop. To the best of my knowledge
that laptop is using a chassis-type of 9 / "Laptop", so after this commit
we still ignore the tablet-switch for that chassis-type.

Looking at the Microsoft Windows documentation for tablet-mode reporting:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/gpiobtn/button-implementation
Then the presence of a tablet-mode switch is indicated by the presence
of a PNP0C60 compatible ACPI devices. There are 2 ways in which this device
can report the tablet-mode. 1. Directly providing a GpioInt resource inside
the PNP0C60 device, 2. Through injecting events from a Windows driver.
It seems that the intel-vbtn / the INT33D6 ACPI device is the ACPI side
of Intel's generic solution for the case where the tablet-mode comes from
the embedded-controller and needs to be "injected".
This all suggests that it might be better to replace the chassis-type
check with a acpi_dev_present("PNP0C60", NULL, -1) check.
Mario, can you provide an acpidump and alsa-info.sh output for the
Dell XPS 9360, so that I can check if that might help with the issue
there, and thus is a potential candidate to replace the chassis-type
check?
