- Add support for adjusting the fan speed if the fan control mode is manual
Documentation for the relevant embedded controller register was obtained from
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Patch_for_controlling_fan_speed
Tested on: R51 by Fabian Keil
T41p by markus
Requested by: many
Approved by: philip
MFC after: 1 week
- Initialize val_ec with the content of the volume EC register
for ACPI_IBM_METHOD_VOLUME and ACPI_IBM_METHOD_MUTE in acpi_ibm_sysctl_set()
if there is no CMOS handle present. This fixes setting volume and mute on
such models.

- Restructured for easier extensibility and maintainability
- To be more uniform with the other ACPI extras drivers and to better reflect
their actual meaning, some sysctls were moved:
o brightness -> lcd_brightness
o keylight -> thinklight
o enable -> events
o misckey -> hotkey
o avail_mask -> availmask
o key_mask -> eventmask
- New "initialmask" sysctl, which holds the initial eventmask
- The "wlan" sysctl is now read-only, since writing to it didn't have
any effect
- The "version" sysctl was removed, since it seems to be the same (0x100)
on all models I have seen
- Support for more hotkeys by the "hotkey" sysctl
- Improved support of ACPI events. Disabled by default, since it unexpectedly
changes the behaviour of some keys. (on my T41p there are now 24 different
keypress events that get reported)
- write support for: volume, mute, lcd_brightness and thinklight
- led(4) interface for the thinklight [1]
- New sysctls "fan" and "fan_speed" to support reading of fan status and speed
- New sysctl "thermal" to support reading of up to 8 thermal sensors

isn't worth adding to the modules lists that we have to hard code for
this to work. Since we print PID right away, we have a trace point
already.
Minor knf while I'm here.

ones, as far as acpi_asus is concerned[1]

probe function when I originally wrote it.

includes and some other minor issues. Last time I asked takawata-san
about this driver, he suggested I commit it.

* Serialize access to the sysctl routines and the notify handler
* Assert that the sx lock is held in any functions they call.
* Note that recursively calling to re-enable the hotkeys is sub-optimal.
modules is a very nice way to produce hard-to-find panics. Who would look for
a bug in a Makefile anyway?
Has anyone seen the pointy hat? :-o

gadgets (hotkeys, lcd, ...) on Asus laptops. I aim to closely track the
acpi4asus project which implements these features in the Linux kernel.
If this breaks your laptop, please let me know how it does it :-)
