Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because
it would create a legacy we don't want to support.
CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is
now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to
the ACPI core.
Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different
strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the
need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games. And it arrived
before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline
kernel, even, which is Good.
This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that
will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel
versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace
capabilities:
Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a
way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only
the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi
input devices.
It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use
both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event
interface, regardless of any module parameter.
The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with
userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input
devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface. To use this
mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2
module parameter.
The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through
sysfs, as well. thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not
support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace
to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs. This capability
will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there.

The current kconfig help text was misleading users. Also, the default for
an input-layer-optimized support caused way too many problems without
up-to-date userspace in place.
So, rework the help text, and change the default to N. Note that
distributions are supposed to enable this option as soon as they update HAL
to a version that handles the thinkpad-acpi new input layer interface.

It appears that Lenovo decided to break the EC brightness control interface
in a weird way in their latest BIOSes. Fortunately, the old CMOS NVRAM
interface works just fine in such BIOSes.
Add a module parameter that allows the user to select which strategy to use
for brightness control: EC, NVRAM, or both. By default, do both (which is
the way thinkpad-acpi used to work until now) on IBM ThinkPads, and use
NVRAM only on Lenovo ThinkPads.

Make the input layer the default way to deal with thinkpad-acpi hot keys,
but add a kernel config option to retain the old way of doing things.
This means we map a lot more keys to useful stuff by default, and also that
we enable hot key handling by default on driver load (like Windows does).
The documentation for proper use of this resource is also updated.

Yeah, we could have just disabled it, but there's work on a new one that
isn't as fundamentally broken, so there really doesn't seem to be any
point in keeping it around.
The recent timer cleanup broke the only valid use, and when I say
"valid", I obviously mean "totally broken". So it's not like it works,
or really even can work in the current format that uses the unsafe
"panic" LED blinking routines..

The SGI PCI-RT card, based on the SGI IOC4 chip, will be made available on
Altix XE (x86_64) platforms in the near future. As such it is now a
misnomer for the IOC4 base device driver to live under drivers/sn, and
would complicate builds for non-SN2.
This patch moves the IOC4 base driver code from drivers/sn to drivers/misc,
and updates the associated Makefiles and Kconfig files to allow building on
non-SN2 configs. Due to the resulting change in link order, it is now
necessary to use late_initcall() for IOC4 subdriver initialization.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
