PATCH v2 7/7 ACPI: WMI: use .notify method instead of installing handler directly

In reply to Bjorn Helgaas

This patch adds a .notify() method. The presence of .notify() causes Linux/ACPI to manage event handlers and notify handlers on our behalf, so we don't have to install and remove them ourselves.
