toshiba_acpi: Add a module parameter to disable hotkeys registration
Some laptop models have working hotkeys without the need of the driver to activate them. This patch adds a module parameter to tell the driver not to register the hotkeys. The new parameter is useful in DE less installations or where the DE does not handle the hotkeys (see bug 99501).
