The Microsoft WMI documentation requires all data blocks to implement the Query Control Method (WQxx). If we encounter a data block not implementing this control method, issue a warning, and ignore the data block. Remove the "readable" attribute as all data blocks must be readable (query-able). Be consistent with the language in the documentation, replace the "writable" attribute with "setable". Simplify (flatten) the control flow of wmi_create_device a bit while we are updating it for the above changes.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
