What:	Support for lcd_switch and display_get in asus-laptop driver

When:	March 2010

Why:	These two features use non-standard interfaces. There are the

	only features that really need multiple path to guess what's

	the right method name on a specific laptop.



	Removing them will allow to remove a lot of code an significantly

	clean the drivers.



	This will affect the backlight code which won't be able to know

	if the backlight is on or off. The platform display file will also be

	write only (like the one in eeepc-laptop).



	This should'nt affect a lot of user because they usually know

	when their display is on or off.
