ACPI: introduce kernel parameter acpi_sleep=sci_force_enable
Introduce kernel parameter acpi_sleep=sci_force_enable some laptop requires SCI_EN being set directly on resume, or else they hung somewhere in the resume code path. We already have a blacklist for these laptops but we still need this option, especially when debugging some suspend/resume problems, in case there are systems that need this workaround and are not yet in the blacklist.
