platform/x86: Add new Dell UART backlight driver
Dell All In One (AIO) models released after 2017 use a backlight controller board connected to an UART. In DSDT this uart port will be defined as: Name (_HID, "DELL0501") Name (_CID, EisaId ("PNP0501") Instead of having a separate ACPI device with an UartSerialBusV2() resource to model the backlight-controller, which would be the standard way to do this. The acpi_quirk_skip_serdev_enumeration() has special handling for this and it will make the serial port code create a serdev controller device for the UART instead of a /dev/ttyS0 char-dev. It will also create a dell-uart-backlight driver platform device for this driver to bind too. This new kernel module contains 2 drivers for this: 1. A simple platform driver which creates the actual serdev device (with the serdev controller device as parent) 2. A serdev driver for the created serdev device which exports the backlight functionality uses a standard backlight class device.
