Lv Zheng 8f8dca3c86 Revert "ACPI / button: Remove lid_init_state=method mode"
commit f369fdf4f6 upstream.

This reverts commit ecb10b694b.

The only expected ACPI control method lid device's usage model is

 1. Listen to the lid notification,
 2. Evaluate _LID after being notified by BIOS,
 3. Suspend the system (if users configure to do so) after seeing "close".

It's not ensured that BIOS will notify OS after boot/resume, and
it's not ensured that BIOS will always generate "open" event upon
opening the lid.

But there are 2 wrong usage models:

 1. When the lid device is responsible for suspend/resume the system,
    userspace requires to see "open" event to be paired with "close" after
    the system is resumed, or it will suspend the system again.

 2. When an external monitor connects to the laptop attached docks,
    userspace requires to see "close" event after the system is resumed so
    that it can determine whether the internal display should remain dark
    and the external display should be lit on.

After we made default kernel behavior to be suitable for usage model 1,
users of usage model 2 start to report regressions for such behavior
change.

Reversion of button.lid_init_state=method doesn't actually reverts to old
default behavior as doing so can enter a regression loop, but facilitates
users to work the reported regressions around with
button.lid_init_state=method.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
