Subject[PATCH v2] platform/x86: wmi-bmof: New driver to expose embedded Binary WMI MOF metadata
Many laptops (and maybe servers?) have embedded WMI Binary MOF metadata.
We do not yet have open-source tools for processing the data, although
one is in the works thanks to Pali:

https://github.com/pali/bmfdec

There is currently no interface to get the data in the first place. By
exposing it, we facilitate the development of new tools.

since-v1:
* address Pali's comments:
* update the cover letter for clarity and accuracy
* update mof->bmof and MOF to Binary MOF throughout the patch
* use dev_err instead of dev_warn in wmi_bmof_probe
