serio devices exposed via platform firmware interfaces such as ACPI
may provide additional identifying information of use to userspace.
We don't associate the serio devices with the firmware device (we don't
set it as parent), so there's no way for userspace to make use of this
information.
We cannot change the parent for serio devices instantiated though a firmware
interface as that would break suspend / resume ordering.
Therefor this patch adds a new firmware_id sysfs attribute so that userspace
can get a string from there with any additional identifying information the
firmware interface may provide.
