[PATCH v2] platform/x86: dell-dw5826e: Add reset driver for DW5826e

[Jack Wu <wojackbb@gmail.com>]

If the DW5826e is in a frozen state and unable to receive USB commands,
this driver provides a method for the user to reset the DW5826e via ACPI.

E.g: echo 1 > /sys/bus/platform/devices/PALC0001\:00/pldr

v2:
  - Remove extra empty line
  - Add missing includes and Remove unnecessary includes, sort includes alphabetically
  - Remove noisy dev_info()
  - Handle obj->type != ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER as error with proper return code
  - Replace miscdevice/file_operations with sysfs attribute (DEVICE_ATTR_WO) to reduce boilerplate
  - Propagate trigger_palc_pldr() return code to userspace
  - Convert from acpi_driver to platform_driver
