dell_laptop: Setting old previous keyboard state failed
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=194081

The issue is actually quite trivial. Byte 3 of kbd_state
on some machines contains "timeout_ac". If this byte is simply
set to 0 the result is failed state set. The "timeout_ac" is not
interpreted in any way, but it is now preserved in order to ensure
the LED state changes go through.
