ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: refactor hotkey_get and hotkey_set (v2)
Refactor and organize the code a bit for the NVRAM polling support:
1. Split hotkey_get/set into hotkey_status_get/set and hotkey_mask_get/set;
2. Cache the status of hot key mask for later driver use;
3. Make sure the cache of hot key mask is refreshed when needed;
4. log a printk notice when the firmware doesn't set the hot key
mask to exactly what we asked it to;
5. Add proper locking to the data structures.
Only (4) should be user-noticeable, but there is a chance (5) fixes
some unknown/unreported race conditions.
