Subject: [PATCH 0/2] hp-wmi: Fix dock status and tablet mode reporting

From: Carlo Caione <carlo@...lessm.com>

Several HP laptops cannot be put to sleep using the LID since systemd complains
that the system is docked even though the laptop is not even dockable (see
[1]).

This is due to a bug in hp-wmi where the driver is failing to check for errors
before creating the input switches.

  hp-wmi: Fix detection for dock and tablet mode
