platform/x86: asus-nb-wmi: Allow configuring SW_TABLET_MODE method with a module option
[ Upstream commit 6be70ccdd989e40af151ce52db5b2d93e97fc9fb ]
Unfortunately we have been unable to find a reliable way to detect if
and how SW_TABLET_MODE reporting is supported, so we are relying on
DMI quirks for this.
Add a module-option to specify the SW_TABLET_MODE method so that this can
be easily tested without needing to rebuild the kernel.
