[coreboot] IBM x60t test - DSDT is in fact incomplete

Hello

My mistake, after carefully checking, it's just the pen that's not giving
anything at all ; however  I am getting the exact same 5E and 5F for the
screen rotation - but no ACPI event.

For the pen, I'm not getting any event at all - even with the modified
kernel with the original DSDT that previously gave me such events. Unless
something weird happened, my best guess is that the pen detection switch is
not correctly plugged. I'll have to check that later.

Now about these tablet rotation, thinkpad-acpi expects a MHKG field in the
dsdt to report them to the input layer (cf tpacpi_input_send_tabletsw)

In the original DSDT, MHKG is:
                        Method (MHKG, 0, NotSerialized)
                        {
                            Store (Zero, Local0)
                            ShiftLeft (\_SB.PCI0.LPC.EC.HTAB, 0x03, Local0)
                            Return (Local0)
                        }

So basically it's only reading the TMOD field from the EC, but in
src/ec/lenovo/h8/acpi/ec.asl, I see MKHP, but no MKHG

A simple fix will be to add MKHG

Meanwhile, commenting out send_acpi_ev=false from hotkey_notify_usrevent
seems in thinkpad-acpi.c enough. Then acpi_listen will then see the
following events:
ibm/hotkey IBM0068:00 00000080 00005009
ibm/hotkey IBM0068:00 00000080 0000500a

(which can be mapped to screen rotation scripts)

For the raw EC events:
