[PATCH v7 1/1] input: ideapad_slidebar: new input driver

[Andrey Moiseev <o2g.org.ru@gmail.com>]

v7: fixed things addressed by Dmitry Torokhov to v7 (quoted message goes below the patch)

ideapad_slidebar is a new driver which enables slidebars on some
Lenovo IdeaPad laptops (the slidebars work with SlideNav/Desktop
Navigator under Windows)

Fixes this: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16004

Registers 'IdeaPad Slidebar' input device and
/sys/devices/platform/ideapad_slidebar/slidebar_mode
for switching slidebar's modes.

Now works on:
IdeaPad Y550, Y550P.

May work on (testing and adding new models is needed):
Ideapad Y560, Y460, Y450, Y650,
and, probably, some others.

Driver source: https://github.com/o2genum/ideapad-slidebar.git

Patch is generated against current mainline kernel.
