platform/x86: thinkpad_acpi: sysfs interface to get wwan antenna type
On some newer Thinkpads we need to set SAR value based on antenna type. This patch provides a sysfs interface that userspace can use to get antenna type and set corresponding SAR value, as is required for FCC certification.

+WWAN Antenna type
+-----------------
+
+sysfs: wwan_antenna_type
+
+On some newer Thinkpads we need to set SAR value based on the antenna
+type. This interface will be used by userspace to get the antenna type
+and set the corresponding SAR value, as is required for FCC certification.
+
+The available commands are::
+
+ cat /sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/wwan_antenna_type
+
+Currently 2 antenna types are supported as mentioned below:
+- type a
+- type b
+
+The property is read-only. If the platform doesn't have support the sysfs
+class is not created.
Adaptive keyboard
