The current legacy WMI handlers are susceptible to picking up wrong
WMI event data on systems where different WMI devices share some
notification IDs.

Prevent this by letting the WMI driver core taking care of retrieving
the event data. This also simplifies the legacy WMI handlers and their
implementation inside the WMI driver core.

The fisr patch fixes a minor issue discovered inside the hp-wmi-sensors
driver.
The second patch converts all legacy WMI notify handlers to stop using
wmi_get_event_data() and instead use the new event data provided by
the WMI driver core.
The remaining patches finally perform some cleanups.

The patch series was tested on a Dell Inspiron 3505 and a Acer Aspire
E1-731 and appears to work.

Changes since v1:
- Rework the hp-wmi-sensors patch
- add Reviewed-by tags
