[PATCH v2] Introduce support for Systems Management Driver over WMI for Dell Systems

[Divya Bharathi]

The Dell WMI Systems Management Driver provides a sysfs
interface for systems management to enable BIOS configuration
capability on certain Dell Systems.

This driver allows user to configure Dell systems with a
uniform common interface. To facilitate this, the patch
introduces a generic way for driver to be able to create
configurable BIOS Attributes available in Setup (F2) screen.

ChangeLog from v1 to v2:
 - use pr_fmt instead of pr_err(DRIVER_NAME
 - re-order variables reverse xmas tree order
 - correct returns of -1 to error codes
 - correct usage of {} on some split line statements
 - Refine all documentation deficiencies suggested by Hans
 - Merge all attributes to a single directory
 - Overhaul WMI interface interaction as suggested by Hans
   * Move WMI driver registration to start of module
   * Remove usage of lists that only use first entry for WMI interfaces
   * Create a global structure shared across interface source files
   * Make get_current_password function static
   * Remove get_pending changes function, shared across global structure now.
- Overhaul use of mutexes
   * Make kset list mutex shared across source files
   * Remove unneeded dell-wmi-sysman call_mutex
   * Keep remaining call_mutexes in WMI functions
- Move security area calculation into a function
- Use NLS helper for utf8->utf16 conversion

+Description:
+		The Dell WMI Systems Management Driver provides a sysfs interface
+		for systems management software to enable BIOS configuration
+		capability on certain Dell systems. This directory exposes
+		interfaces for interacting with BIOS attributes.
+
+		Attributes can accept a set of pre-defined valid values or a range of
+		numerical values or a string. An atribute can accept float as well,
+		if so '.' is used as decimal separator.
+
+		Also, BIOS Admin password and System Password can be set, reset or
+		cleared using these attributes. An "Admin" password is used for
+		preventing modification to the BIOS settings. A "System" password is
+		required to boot a machine.
+
+		current_value:	A file that can be read to obtain the current
+		value of the <attr>
+
+		This file can also be written to in order to update
+		the value of a <attr>
+
+		default_value:	A file that can be read to obtain the default
+		value of the <attr>
+
+		display_name:	A file that can be read to obtain a user friendly
+		description of the at <attr>
+
+		display_name_language_code:	A file that can be read to obtain
+		the IETF language tag corresponding to the "display_name" of the <attr>
+
+		modifier:	A file that can be read to obtain attribute-level
+		dependency rule. It says an attribute X will become read-only or
+		suppressed,	if attribute Y is not configured.
+		For example, AutoOnHr becomes read-only if AutoOn is disabled
+
+		possible_value:	A file that can be read to obtain the possible
+		values of the <attr>. Values are separated using semi-colon.
+
+		value_modifier:	A file that can be read to obtain value-level
+		dependency. This file is similar to modifier but here, an attribute's
+		current value will be forcefully changed based dependent attributes
+		value.
+		For example, current value of LegacyOrom will become Disabled if
+		SecureBoot is Enabled.
+
+		lower_bound:	A file that can be read to obtain the lower
+		bound value of the <attr>
+
+		upper_bound:	A file that can be read to obtain the upper
+		bound value of the <attr>
+
+		scalar_increment:	A file that can be read to obtain the
+		resolution of the incremental value this attribute accepts.
+
+		max_length:	A file that can be read to obtain the maximum
+		length value of the <attr>
+
+		min_length:	A file that can be read to obtain the minimum
+		length value of the <attr>
+
+		is_password_set:	A file that can be read
+		to obtain flag to see if a password is set on <attr>
+
+		max_password_length:	A file that can be read to obtain the
+		maximum length of the Password
+
+		min_password_length:	A file that can be read to obtain the
+		minimum length of the Password
+
+		current_password: A write only value used for privileged access
+		such as setting attributes when a system or admin password is set
+		or resetting to a new password
+
+		new_password: A write only value that when used in tandem with
+		current_password will reset a system or admin password.

+Description:
+		This attribute can be used to reset the BIOS Configuration.
+		Specifically, it tells which type of reset BIOS configuration is being
+		requested on the host.
+
+		Reading from it returns a list of supported options encoded as:
+
+			'builtinsafe' (Built in safe configuration profile)
+			'lastknowngood' (Last known good saved configuration profile)
+			'factory' (Default factory settings configuration profile)
+			'custom' (Custom saved configuration profile)
+
+		The currently selected option is printed in square brackets as
+		shown below:
+
+		# echo "factory" > sys/devices/platform/dell-wmi-sysman/attributes/reset_bios
+
+		# cat sys/devices/platform/dell-wmi-sysman/attributes/reset_bios
+		# builtinsafe lastknowngood [factory] custom
+
+		Note that any changes to this attribute requires a reboot
+		for changes to take effect.

+		pending BIOS attribute changes.
+
