platform/x86: lg-laptop: Add support for native ACPI events

Browse source

LG devices support two interfaces for receiving events:
- the WMI-based interface currently being used by the driver
- a ACPI-based interface similar to the WMI-based interface

Older devices use the WMI-based interface by default and need
to be manually switched into ACPI mode. Newer devices however
only support the ACPI-based interface, preventing the current
driver from receiving events on them.

Fix this by always using the native ACPI-based interface for
receiving events.
