[PATCH v3 0/5] platform/x86: introduce asus-armoury driver

["Luke D. Jones" <luke@ljones.dev>]

This is the first major patch I've ever done with the intention of
introducing a new module, so it's highly likely I've made some mistakes
or misunderstood something.

TL;DR:
1. introduce new module to contain bios attributes, using fw_attributes_class
2. deprecate all possible attributes from asus-wmi that were added ad-hoc
3. remove those in the next LTS cycle

The idea for this originates from a conversation with Mario Limonciello
https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/371d4109-a3bb-4c3b-802f-4ec27a945c99@amd.com/

It is without a doubt much cleaner to use, easier to discover, and the
API is well defined as opposed to the random clutter of attributes I had
been placing in the platform sysfs.

I am unsure of how best to handle the deprecation of attributes.

There's also some attributes that are obviously boolean but are using 0/1.
I'm unsure if I should change that.

And would it be best to move the asus stuff to a subdir now? Akin to the
Dell platform stuff.

Regards,
Luke
