Len Brown	b4f9fe1215	ACPI: move wmi, asus_acpi, toshiba_acpi to drivers/platform/x86 ... These are platform specific drivers that happen to use ACPI, while drivers/acpi/ is for code that implements ACPI itself. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>	2008-12-19 04:42:33 -05:00
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> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>	2008-12-19 04:42:32 -05:00
