SW_TABLET_MODE never moves on an ASUS ProArt PX13 (HN7306EAC), and no
tablet_mode_sw value fixes it, because two independent things are in the way.

The first is a devstate quirk. The lid-flip devstate on this machine sets
ASUS_WMI_DSTS_UNKNOWN_BIT alongside the state bit while folded, so
ASUS_WMI_DEVID_LID_FLIP_ROG answers 0x00010000 open and 0x00010003 folded.
asus_wmi_get_devstate_simple() reads that bit as "state not known" and fails
with -ENODEV, throwing away a valid state that is sitting in bit 0.

The second is the devid/notify pairing. asus-wmi ties the devid it polls to the
one notify code it listens for, and tablet_mode_sw only offers fixed pairings.
This chassis reads the hinge at LID_FLIP_ROG but notifies with NOTIFY_LID_FLIP,
a combination no value covers: tablet_mode_sw=2 pins the switch on and suspends
the internal keyboard for good, while tablet_mode_sw=3 polls the right devid but
never hears the event.

Patch 1 adds a tablet-specific read that gates on
 the presence bit only, used
from the two tablet-switch paths and leaving every other
asus_wmi_get_devstate_simple() caller alone. Patch 2 accepts either lid-flip
notify code once a lid-flip switch is registered; both are the same "lid flip
action" event and both already map to KEY_PROG2 in the sparse keymap.

Machines with a keyboard-dock switch notify with 0x75 and are unaffected, and
with no switch registered the event code is 0 so the old equality test is what
still runs.

Tested on the one machine I have, an ASUS ProArt PX13 HN7306EAC: six clean
SW_TABLET_MODE transitions over three fold cycles with no stray KEY_PROG2, and
libinput suspends the internal keyboard and touchpad on fold and restores them
on unfold. I do not have another convertible to check the untouched paths on
hardware, so review of the dock case would be welcome.

  platform/x86: asus-wmi: keep the lid-flip state when UNKNOWN is set
  platform/x86: asus-wmi: accept either lid-
flip notify code

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3066 bytes --]

On some convertibles the lid-flip devstate sets ASUS_WMI_DSTS_UNKNOWN_BIT
alongside the state bit while the machine is folded. Measured on an ASUS
ProArt PX13 (HN7306EAC), ASUS_WMI_DEVID_LID_FLIP_ROG answers 0x00010000
open and 0x00010003 folded, that is presence | status | UNKNOWN.

asus_wmi_get_devstate_simple() treats that bit as "the state is not known"
and fails the call with -ENODEV, so asus_wmi_tablet_mode_get_state()
discards a perfectly good state sitting in bit 0 and SW_TABLET_MODE never
moves.

Add asus_wmi_tablet_sw_get_state(), which gates on the presence bit only
and returns the status bit. Use it from the two tablet-switch paths. Every
other caller of asus_wmi_get_devstate_simple() is untouched, so the change
is confined to the tablet switch.

asus-wmi pairs the devid it polls for the tablet switch with the single
notify code it listens for, and tablet_mode_sw only offers those fixed
pairings. Some convertibles read the hinge at one lid-flip devid but
notify with the other, which no value covers.

The ASUS ProArt PX13 (HN7306EAC) is one. ASUS_WMI_DEVID_LID_FLIP is frozen
at 1 in every pose while ASUS_WMI_DEVID_LID_FLIP_ROG tracks the hinge, yet
folding notifies with NOTIFY_LID_FLIP rather than NOTIFY_LID_FLIP_ROG. So
tablet_mode_sw=2 pins the switch on and suspends the internal keyboard for
good, and tablet_mode_sw=3 reads the right devid but never hears the event.

Accept either lid-flip code once a lid-flip switch is registered. Both are
the same "lid flip action" event and both already map to KEY_PROG2 in the
sparse keymap. Machines with a keyboard-dock switch notify with 0x75 and
are unaffected, and with no switch registered the event code is 0 and the
old equality test still runs.

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2998 bytes --]

SW_TABLET_MODE never moves on an ASUS ProArt PX13 (HN7306EAC), and no
tablet_mode_sw value fixes it, because two independent things are in the way.

The first is a devstate quirk. The lid-flip devstate on this machine sets
ASUS_WMI_DSTS_UNKNOWN_BIT alongside the state bit while folded, so
ASUS_WMI_DEVID_LID_FLIP_ROG answers 0x00010000 open and 0x00010003 folded.
asus_wmi_get_devstate_simple() reads that bit as "state not known" and fails
with -ENODEV, throwing away a valid state that is sitting in bit 0.

The second is the devid/notify pairing. asus-wmi ties the devid it polls to the
one notify code it listens for, and tablet_mode_sw only offers fixed pairings.
This chassis reads the hinge at LID_FLIP_ROG but notifies with NOTIFY_LID_FLIP,
a combination no value covers: tablet_mode_sw=2 pins the switch on and suspends
the internal keyboard for good, while tablet_mode_sw=3 polls the right devid but
never hears the event.

Patch 1 adds a tablet-specific read that gates on
 the presence bit only, used
from the two tablet-switch paths and leaving every other
asus_wmi_get_devstate_simple() caller alone. Patch 2 accepts either lid-flip
notify code once a lid-flip switch is registered; both are the same "lid flip
action" event and both already map to KEY_PROG2 in the sparse keymap.

Machines with a keyboard-dock switch notify with 0x75 and are unaffected, and
with no switch registered the event code is 0 so the old equality test is what
still runs.

Tested on the one machine I have, an ASUS ProArt PX13 HN7306EAC: six clean
SW_TABLET_MODE transitions over three fold cycles with no stray KEY_PROG2, and
libinput suspends the internal keyboard and touchpad on fold and restores them
on unfold. I do not have another convertible to check the untouched paths on
hardware, so review of the dock case would be welcome.

Changes in v2:
 - Patch 1: use FIELD_GET() for the presence and state bits instead of open
   mask-and-test, and add the linux/bitfiel
d.h include it needs. Suggested by
   Denis Benato. This also drops the !! on the return, since FIELD_GET already
   yields 0 or 1. No functional change; re-tested on the same machine.
 - No other changes. Patch 2 is unchanged.

Note that asus-wmi.c had no FIELD_GET() users before this, and the neighbouring
asus_wmi_dev_is_present() still open-codes the same presence test, so the file
is now mixed. Happy to send a separate cleanup converting the remaining
ASUS_WMI_DSTS_* users, and the masks in asus-wmi.h to BIT(), if that is wanted;
it seemed wrong to fold unrelated churn into a fix.

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3405 bytes --]

On some convertibles the lid-flip devstate sets ASUS_WMI_DSTS_UNKNOWN_BIT
alongside the state bit while the machine is folded. Measured on an ASUS
ProArt PX13 (HN7306EAC), ASUS_WMI_DEVID_LID_FLIP_ROG answers 0x00010000
open and 0x00010003 folded, that is presence | status | UNKNOWN.

asus_wmi_get_devstate_simple() treats that bit as "the state is not known"
and fails the call with -ENODEV, so asus_wmi_tablet_mode_get_state()
discards a perfectly good state sitting in bit 0 and SW_TABLET_MODE never
moves.

Add asus_wmi_tablet_sw_get_state(), which gates on the presence bit only
and returns the status bit. Use it from the two tablet-switch paths. Every
other caller of asus_wmi_get_devstate_simple() is untouched, so the change
is confined to the tablet switch.

v2: use FIELD_GET() for both bits and add the linux/bitfield.h include,
    per Denis Benato. Drops the !! on the return. No functional change.

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2840 bytes --]

asus-wmi pairs the devid it polls for the tablet switch with the single
notify code it listens for, and tablet_mode_sw only offers those fixed
pairings. Some convertibles read the hinge at one lid-flip devid but
notify with the other, which no value covers.

The ASUS ProArt PX13 (HN7306EAC) is one. ASUS_WMI_DEVID_LID_FLIP is frozen
at 1 in every pose while ASUS_WMI_DEVID_LID_FLIP_ROG tracks the hinge, yet
folding notifies with NOTIFY_LID_FLIP rather than NOTIFY_LID_FLIP_ROG. So
tablet_mode_sw=2 pins the switch on and suspends the internal keyboard for
good, and tablet_mode_sw=3 reads the right devid but never hears the event.

Accept either lid-flip code once a lid-flip switch is registered. Both are
the same "lid flip action" event and both already map to KEY_PROG2 in the
sparse keymap. Machines with a keyboard-dock switch notify with 0x75 and
are unaffected, and with no switch registered the event code is 0 and the
old equality test still runs.
