During the review of a previous patch series, Sashiko found multiple
preexisting issues in multiple Dell WMI drivers. The first three
patches aim to fix those issues, while the last patch is based on
a suggestion of Ilpo himself.

All patches where tested on a Dell Inspiron 3505 and appear to work
just fine.

Thank you for your contribution, it has been applied to my local
review-ilpo-next branch. Note it will show up in the public
platform-drivers-x86/review-ilpo-next branch only once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

FYI [if applicable to your patch], as per Linus' policy change, also
fixes are mostly routed through for-next unless the fix is for a
commit introduced in the most recent or clearly a regression fix.

Thank you :)
