platform/x86: acer-wmi: Add new force_caps module parameter
[ Upstream commit 39aa009bb66f9d5fbd1e58ca4aa03d6e6f2c9915 ] Add a new force_caps module parameter to allow overriding the drivers builtin capability detection mechanism. This can be used to for example: -Disable rfkill functionality on devices where there is an AA OEM DMI record advertising non functional rfkill switches -Force loading of the driver on devices with a missing AA OEM DMI record Note that force_caps is -1 when unset, this allows forcing the capability field to 0, which results in acer-wmi only providing WMI hotkey handling while disabling all other (led, rfkill, backlight) functionality.
