Subject: [PATCH v4 3/3] dell-laptop: Use dell-rbtn instead i8042 filter when possible
Until now module dell-laptop registered rfkill device which used i8042
filter function for receiving HW switch rfkill events (handling special
keycode).
But for some dell laptops there is native ACPI driver dell-rbtn which can
receive rfkill events (without i8042 hooks).
So this patch will combine best from both sides. It will use native ACPI
driver dell-rbtn for receiving events and dell-laptop SMBIOS interface for
enabling or disabling radio devices. If ACPI driver or device will not be
available fallback to i8042 filter function will be used.
Patch also changes module_init() to late_initcall() to ensure that init
function will be called after initializing dell-rbtn.c driver.

Changes for v4:
- Use symbol_request() instead hard dependency on function symbols
- Move rfkill/rbtn/i8042 clean code to dell_cleanup_rfkill()
- Use late_initcall() instead module_init()
- Fix commit message and comments, spelling error fixed by aspell
