asus-laptop: add base driver
Adds the new driver and make ASUS_LAPTOP and ACPI_ASUS incompatible. It may be strange to use ASUS_CREATE_DEVICE_ATTR and ASUS_SET_DEVICE_ATTR now, but these macro will be very usefull in next patchs. ASUS_HANDLE and ASUS_HANDLE_INIT comes from IBM_HANDLE and IBM_HANDLE_INIT, with some modification, and will also be used in next patchs.
