Frans Pop 4c395bdd3f hp-wmi: notify of a potential docking state change on resume
It is possible that the system gets docked or undocked while it's
suspended. Generate an input event on resume to notify user space
if there was a state change.

As it is a switch, we can generate the event unconditionally; the
input layer will only pass it on if there is an actual change.

Michael Spang 1ba869ec58 acer-wmi: fix regression in backlight detection
Currently we disable the Acer WMI backlight device if there is no ACPI
backlight device.  As a result, we end up with no backlight device at all.
 We should instead disable it if there is an ACPI device, as the other
laptop drivers do.  This regression was introduced in febf2d9 ("Acer-WMI:
fingers off backlight if video.ko is serving this functionality").

Each laptop driver with backlight support got a similar change around
febf2d9.  The changes to the other drivers look correct; see e.g.
a598c82f for a similar but correct change.  The regression is also in
2.6.28.

Tony Vroon 4898c2b2f0 fujitsu-laptop: Use RFKILL support bitmask from firmware
Up until now, we polled the rfkill status for every incoming FUJ02E3 ACPI event.
It turns out that the firmware has a bitmask which indicates what rfkill-related
state it can report.
The rfkill_supported bitmask is now used to avoid polling for rfkill at all in
the notification handler if there is no support. Also, it is used in the platform
device callbacks. As before we register all callbacks and report "unknown" if the
firmware does not give us status updates for that particular bit.

This was fed through checkpatch.pl and tested on the S6420, S7020 and P8010
platforms.

Matthew Garrett 5740294ca3 eeepc-laptop: Implement rfkill hotplugging in eeepc-laptop
The Eee implements rfkill by logically unplugging the wireless card from the
PCI bus. Despite sending ACPI notifications, this does not appear to be
implemented using standard ACPI hotplug - nor does the firmware provide the
_OSC method required to support native PCIe hotplug. The only sensible choice
appears to be to handle the hotplugging directly in the eeepc-laptop driver.
Tested successfully on a 700, 900 and 901.

with the quirk active, the user could set the hwmon pwm1 attribute and
switch out of pwm1_mode=2 to pwm1_mode=0 without changing pwm1_mode

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.

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>
