Input: i8042 - allow insmod to succeed on devices without an i8042 controller
The i8042 module exports several symbols which may be used by other modules. Before this commit it would refuse to load (when built as a module itself) on systems without an i8042 controller. This is a problem specifically for the asus-nb-wmi module. Many Asus laptops support the Asus WMI interface. Some of them have an i8042 controller and need to use i8042_install_filter() to filter some kbd events. Other models do not have an i8042 controller (e.g. they use an USB attached kbd). Before this commit the asus-nb-wmi driver could not be loaded on Asus models without an i8042 controller, when the i8042 code was built as a module (as Arch Linux does) because the module_init function of the i8042 module would fail with -ENODEV and thus the i8042_install_filter symbol could not be loaded. This commit fixes this by exiting from module_init with a return code of 0 if no controller is found. It also adds a i8042_present bool to make the module_exit function a no-op in this case and also adds a check for i8042_present to the exported i8042_command function. The latter i8042_present check should not really be necessary because when builtin that function can already be used on systems without an i8042 controller, but better safe then sorry.
