The PWM beeper volume can be controlled by adjusting the PWM duty cycle,
expose volume setting via sysfs, so users can make the beeper quieter.
This patch adds sysfs attribute 'volume' in range 0..50000, i.e. from 0
to 50% in 1/1000th of percent steps, this resolution should be sufficient.
The reason for 50000 cap on volume or PWM duty cycle is because duty cycle
above 50% again reduces the loudness, the PWM wave form is inverted wave
form of the one for duty cycle below 50% and the beeper gets quieter the
closer the setting is to 100% . Hence, 50% cap where the wave form yields
the loudest result.

An alternative option would be to extend the userspace input ABI, e.g. by
using SND_TONE top 16bits to encode the duty cycle in 0..50000 range, and
bottom 16bit to encode the existing frequency in Hz . Since frequency in
Hz is likely to be below some 25 kHz for audible bell, this fits in 16bits
just fine. Thoughts ?

NOTE: This uses approach similar to [1], except it is much simpler.
