[PATCH] Add switch for dock events

[Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org>]

Add a switch to signal dock events to userspace.

I've done this as an input event rather than anything else since there 
isn't necessarily a terribly coherent concept of a dock device. HPs (for 
example) don't use ACPI for docking - the dock is simply an extension of 
devices that are already on the system. We can't sensibly create a dock 
platform device and then generate uevents on it. Doing it this way lets 
us standardise on a way to send docking events to userspace, which lets 
desktops do things like automatically expand onto external monitors when 
the system is docked.
