Subject: Re: [RFC 07/24] x86/thinkpad_acpi: Use arch_nvram_ops methods
 instead of nvram_read_byte() and nvram_write_byte()

Can you describe how you did the testing?  A specific procedure is required
to test the hotkey NVRAM polling codepaths (which will read several NVRAM
bytes @10Hz by default) in a T43...

The patch looks correct, so I don't expect any problems.

Provided that your test procedure did enable hotkey NVRAM polling in the T43
and your hotkeys all still worked fine, you have my Acked-by.
