This is mostly looking good, some small remarks / request for tweaks
below. After those I believe that this patch will be ready for merging.

This change impacts all callers of hp_wmi_read_int(),
please put this in a new 1/4 patch with its own
commit message giving more details about this change.

please use:

	return !!(state & HPWMI_DOCK_MASK);

Here so that there only is a single return statement
for the success path.

return -ENODEV here so that hp_wmi_input_setup() does not
register a SW_TABLET_MODE capability in this case.

Userspace *always* will behave as if the device is not a tablet
(e.g. NOT show on screen keyboard when focussing text fields)
if the driver advertises SW_TABLET_MODE capability which
always reports 0. So it is important to not advertise
SW_TABLET_MODE at all when it is not available.

Again return -ENODEV.

If this fails once it will likely fail always, so please do
"return ret" here, so that hp_wmi_input_setup() does not
register a SW_TABLET_MODE capability in this case.

Please do:

	return system_device_mode[0] == DEVICE_MODE_TABLET;

here instead.
