Perhaps the LID status should be ignored when the device is in tablet
mode?

In the meantime, I took a look at two tablets here: ASUS T100 and Onda
V975W, both are baytrail-T tablet while the T100 has a keyboard dock.
For T100, its _LID return the value of GPO2.LIDZ, which has an initial
value of 1: "Name(LIDZ, One)" and on LID events, LIDZ will be assigned
proper value; and for Onda V975W, it doesn't define the LID acpi device.
So these two devices don't have this problem.
