<content type='text'>
This reverts commit ecb10b694b72ca5ea51b3c90a71ff2a11963425a.

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.

Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
 "A reasonably busy cycle for documentation this time around. There is a
  new guide for user-space API documents, rather sparsely populated at
  the moment, but it's a start. Markus improved the infrastructure for
  converting diagrams. Mauro has converted much of the USB documentation
  over to RST. Plus the usual set of fixes, improvements, and tweaks.

  There's a bit more than the usual amount of reaching out of
  Documentation/ to fix comments elsewhere in the tree; I have acks for
  those where I could get them"
