Matthew Garrett 6cc056bc31 sony-laptop: Add rfkill support on new models
Newer Vaios provide a full featured rfkill implementation via their
platform methods. Add support for enumerating the available devices and
providing rfkill access to them. Support for the physical kill switch is
added, with the devices moving into the HARD_BLOCKED state when toggled.

Matthew Garrett 9b57896e62 sony-laptop: Add support for extra keyboard events
The current sony-laptop code assumes that the keyboard event method is
always located at slot 2 in the platform code. Remove this assumption and
add support for some additional hotkeys.

Matthew Garrett 82734bfc86 sony-laptop: Enable EC on newer hardware
The latest Vaios can execute certain codepaths in two ways - either using
system management mode or using pure ACPI methods. The latter is only used
if the OS has called the ECON method. Ensure that this is done where the
method is available.

Matthew Garrett badf26f00f sony-laptop: Add support for new Sony platform API
Newer Sony Vaios provide a new API for accessing platform functionality. It
consists of a set of standardised methods for enabling events and performing
queries. These are each identified by a unique handle. This patch adds
support for calling functions based on their handle and ports the existing
code for these machines over to it.

Jonathan Corbet 60aa49243d Rationalize fasync return values
Most fasync implementations do something like:

     return fasync_helper(...);

But fasync_helper() will return a positive value at times - a feature used
in at least one place.  Thus, a number of other drivers do:

     err = fasync_helper(...);
     if (err < 0)
             return err;
     return 0;

In the interests of consistency and more concise code, it makes sense to
map positive return values onto zero where ->fasync() is called.

Len Brown 41b16dce39 create drivers/platform/x86/ from drivers/misc/
Move x86 platform specific drivers from drivers/misc/
to a new home under drivers/platform/x86/.

The community has been maintaining x86 vendor-specific
platform specific drivers under /drivers/misc/ for a few years.
The oldest ones started life under drivers/acpi.
They moved out of drivers/acpi/ because they don't actually
implement the ACPI specification, but either simply
use ACPI, or implement vendor-specific ACPI extensions.

In the future we anticipate...
drivers/misc/ will go away.
other architectures will create drivers/platform/<arch>
