Subject: [git pull request] ACPI and driver patches for 2.6.33.merge

Hi Linus,

please pull from: 

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-acpi-2.6.git release

I admit that I didn't have a bunch of this stuff up in linux-next,
for I pushed a batch quite recently and linux-next was
using last week's tree due to merge conflicts.

Anyway, this completes the ACPICA changes we
started for this release.

The bulk of the platform driver updates should be in here,
though I do expect some smaller updates still.

I also expect some ACPI bug fixes which are now percolating.

This will update the files shown below.

thanks!

    ACPI processor: Fix section mismatch for processor_add()
    
    Due to the merge of processor_start() (declared with __cpuinit) into
    processor_add(), a section mismatch warning appears:
    
    WARNING: drivers/built-in.o(.text+0x4d59d): Section mismatch in reference
    from the function acpi_processor_add() to the function
    .cpuinit.text:acpi_processor_power_init()
    ...
    
    This patch fixes the warning by declaring processor_add() as __cpuinit
    and also declares acpi_processor_add_fs() as __cpuinit as it is only
    used in acpi_processor_add().

    Toshiba Bluetooth Enabling driver (RFKill handler v3)
    
    This patch adds support for the ACPI events generated by the RFKill
    switch on modern Toshiba laptops, and re-enables the Bluetooth USB
    device when the switch is flipped back to the 'on' position.
    
    The RFKill switch brute force pulls out the USB device when flipped to
    'off', but it doesn't automatically re-enable it. Without this driver,
    the Bluetooth is gone until after a reboot on my Portege R500.

    ACPI: fix for lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast()
    
    I got following warning on ia64 box:
      In function 'acpi_processor_power_verify':
      642: warning: passing argument 2 of 'smp_call_function_single' from
      incompatible pointer type
    
    This smp_call_function_single() was introduced by a commit

    The problem is that the lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() has 2 versions:
    One is real code that modified in the above commit, and the other is NOP
    code that used when !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3:
    
      static void lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast(struct acpi_processor *pr) { }
    
    So I got warning because of !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3.
    
    We really want to do nothing here on !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3, so
    modify lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() of real version to use
    smp_call_function_single() in it.

    ACPI: dock: add struct dock_station * directly to platform device data
    
    Instead of adding a (struct dock_station **) to our dock device's
    platform data, we can add the (struct dock_station *) directly.
    
    This change saves us some ugly casting and improves readability.
    
    The cost of making this change is an extra 290 bytes of stack usage,
    but this is an infrequently called code-path and unlikely to cause
    the kernel to blow up.

    thinkpad-acpi: disable volume control
    
    Disable volume control by default.  It can be enabled at module load
    time by a module parameter (volume_control=1).
    
    The audio control mixer that thinkpad-acpi interacts with is fully
    functional without any drivers, and operated by hotkeys.
    
    The idea behind the console audio control is that the human operator
    is the only one that can interact with it.  The ThinkVantage suite in
    Windows does not allow any software-based overrides, and only does OSD
    (on-screen-display) functions.
    
    The Linux driver will, with the addition of the ALSA interface, try to
    follow and enforce the ThinkVantage UI design:
    
    The user is supposed to use the keyboard hotkeys to interact with the
    console audio control.  The kernel and the desktop environment is
    supposed to cooperate to provide proper user feedback through
    on-screen-display functions.
    
    Distros are urged to not to enable volume control by default.
    Enabling this must be a local admin's decision.  This is the reason
    why there is no Kconfig option.
    
    Keep in mind that all ThinkPads have a normal, main mixer (AC97 or
    HDA) for regular software-based audio control.  We are not talking
    about that mixer here.
    
    Advanced users are, of course, free to enable volume control and do as
    they please.

    thinkpad-acpi: support MUTE-only ThinkPads
    
    Lenovo removed the extra mixer since the T61 and thereabouts.
    Newer Lenovo models only have the mute gate function, and leave
    the volume control to the HDA mixer.
    
    Until a way to automatically query the firmware about its audio
    control capabilities is discovered (there might not be any), use a
    white/black list.
    
    We will likely need to ask T60 (old and new model) and Z60/Z61 users
    whether they have volume control to populate the black/white list.
    Meanwhile, provide a volume_capabilities parameter that can be used to
    override the defaults.

    thinkpad-acpi: volume subdriver rewrite
    
    I don't trust the coupled EC writes and SMI calls the current volume
    control code does very much, although it is exactly what the IBM DSDTs
    seem to do (they never do more than a single step though).
    
    Change the driver to stop issuing SMIs, and just drive the EC directly
    to the desired level (DSDTs seem to confirm this will work even on

    We checkpoint directly to NVRAM (this can be turned off) at
    suspend/shutdown/driver unload, which from what I can see in tbp,
    should also work on every ThinkPad.

    thinkpad-acpi: sync input device EV_SW initial state
    
    Before we register the input device, sync the input layer EV_SW state
    through a call to input_report_switch(), to avoid issuing a gratuitous
    event for the initial state of these switches.
    
    This fixes some annoyances caused by the interaction with rfkill and
    EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL events.

    asus-laptop: change light sens default values.
    
    The light sensor disable brightness key and
    /sys/class/backlight/ control. There was a lot of report
    from users who didn't understand why they couldn't change their
    brightness, including:
    
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222171
    https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=514747
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13671
    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14432
    
    Now the light sensor is disabled, and if the user want to enable
    it, the level should be ok.
    
    The funny thing is that comments where ok, not code.

    ipmi: add PNP discovery (ACPI namespace via PNPACPI)
    
    This allows ipmi_si_intf.c to claim IPMI devices described in the ACPI
    namespace.  Using PNP makes it simpler to parse the IRQ/IO/memory resources
    of the device.
    
    We look at any SPMI tables before looking for devices in the namespace.
    
    This is based on ipmi_pci_probe().

    ACPI: Use the ARB_DISABLE for the CPU which model id is less than 0x0f.
    
    Currently, ARB_DISABLE is a NOP on all of the recent Intel platforms.
    For such platforms, reduce contention on c3_lock by skipping the fake
    ARB_DISABLE.
    
    The cpu model id on one laptop is 14. If we disable ARB_DISABLE on this box,
    the box can't be booted correctly. But if we still enable ARB_DISABLE on this
    box, the box can be booted correctly.
    
    So we still use the ARB_DISABLE for the cpu which mode id is less than 0x0f.

    dell-wmi: Add support for new Dell systems
    
    Newer Dell systems support HotKey features differently from legacy
    systems.  A new vendor specifc HotKey SMBIOS table (Type 0xB2) is
    defined. This table contains a mapping between scancode and the
    corresponding predefined keyfunction ( i.e. keycode).. Also, a new
    ACPI-WMI event type (called KeyIDList) with a value of 0x0010 is
    defined. Any BIOS containing 0xB2 table will send hotkey notifications
    using KeyIDList event.
    
    This is Rezwanul's patch, updated to ensure that brightness events are

    dell-laptop: create a platform device as a parent for the rfkill devices etc.
    
    dell-laptop may not need to export any sysfs files, but it should still
    create a platform device as a parent for the rfkill and backlight
    devices.  Otherwise sysfs will display these as "virtual" devices,
    with no connection to either physical hardware or the dell-laptop
    module.
    
    Apparently this is useful for hardware detection.

    1) Add support for reading the hardware blocked state.  Previously
       we read a combination of the hardware and software blocked states,
       reporting it as the software blocked state.  This caused some
       confusing behaviour.
    
    2) The software state is persistent, mark it as such.
    
    3) Check rfkill in the resume handler.  Both the hard and soft
       blocked states may change over hibernation.

    asus-laptop: add Lenovo SL hotkey support
    
    Lenovo SL series laptop has a very similar DSDT with Asus laptops. We can
    easily have the extra ACPI function support with little modification in
    asus-laptop.c
    
    Here is the hotkey enablement for Lenovo SL series laptop.
    
    This patch will enable the following hotkey:
     - Volumn Up
     - Volumn Down
     - Mute
     - Screen Lock (Fn+F2)
     - Battery Status (Fn+F3)
     - WLAN switch (Fn+F5)
     - Video output switch (Fn+F7)
     - Touchpad switch (Fn+F8)
     - Screen Magnifier (Fn+Space)
    
    The following function of Lenovo SL laptop is still need to be enabled:
     - Hotkey: KEY_SUSPEND (Fn+F4), KEY_SLEEP (Fn+F12), Dock Eject (Fn+F9)
     - Rfkill for bluetooth and wlan
     - LenovoCare LED
     - Hwmon for fan speed

    eeepc-laptop: callbacks should use "driver data" parameter or field
    
    Callback methods should not refer to a variable like "eeepc" (formally
    "ehotk").  Instead, they should extract the data they need either from
    a "driver data" parameter, or the "driver data" field of the object
    which they operate on.  The "eeepc" variable can then be removed.
    
    In practice, drivers under "drivers/platform" can get away without using
    driver data, because it doesn't make sense to have more than one
    instance of them.  However this makes it harder to review them for
    correctness.  This is especially true for core ACPI developers who have
    not previously been exposed to this anti-pattern :-).
    
    This will serve as an example of best practice for new driver writers
    (whether they find it themselves, or have it pointed out during review
    :-).
    
    The hwmon sub-device is a special case.  It uses ec_{read,write} which
    are defined to communicate with the (first) EC, so it does not require
    any driver data.  It should still only be instantiated in the context of
    an ASUS010 device because we don't have a safe way to probe for it.

    eeepc-laptop: revise names
    
    eeepc-laptop now does a lot more than just hotkeys.  Replace the "hotk"
    names used throughout the driver with some slightly more appropriate
    names.  The actual strings used in kernel messages and sysfs are left
    unchanged.
    
    e.g.
    	EEEPC_HOTK_FILE  -> EEEPC_LAPTOP_FILE
    	EEEPC_HOTK_HID   -> EEEPC_ACPI_HID
    
    	eeepc_hotk_notify -> eeepc_acpi_notify
    	struct eeepc_hotk -> struct eeepc_laptop
    	ehotk             -> eeepc
    
    I'm about to refactor the entire driver to remove the global "ehotk"
    variable, and I don't wish to add "struct eeepc_hotk *ehotk" to
    functions which have nothing to do with hotkeys.
    
    Also
     - fix the name of "eepc_get_entry_by_keycode()"
     - remove the unused definition of NOTIFY_WLAN_ON.

    eeepc-laptop: code movement
    
    Move e.g. backlight_init() and backlight_exit() together along with the
    other backlight functions, instead of grouping init() and exit()
    functions.  Move e.g. backlight_ops to follow the functions it refers
    to, and remove the forward declarations.  The code itself should remain
    unchanged.
    
    The eeepc-laptop driver implements a number of interfaces like the
    backlight class driver.  This change makes it easier to examine the
    implementation of one interface at at a time, without having to search
    through the file to find init() and exit() functions etc.

    eeepc-laptop: simplify how the hwmon device reads values from the EC
    
    The hwmon device uses ec_write() to write values to the EC.  So for
    consistency it should use ec_read() to read values.  The extra layers
    of indirection used did not add any value.
    
    This may mean we no longer take the ACPI global lock for such reads
    (if the EC operation region requires the lock and the EC does not).
    But there is no point locking each one-byte read individually, when
    write operations do not use the lock at all.

    eeepc-laptop: fix value of pwm1_enable to match documentation
    
    Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface tells us that automatic fan speed
    control should be represented by a value of 2 or above for pwm1_enable.
    Fix eeepc_get_fan_ctrl() to return 2 for automatic fan control.
    
    Setting "1" for manual control is already consistent with the
    documentation, so this remains unchanged.
    
    Let's preserve the ABI for this specific driver, so that writing "0"
    will still invoke automatic control.
    
    (The documentation says setting "0" should leave the fan at full speed
    all the time.  This mode is not directly supported by our hardware. Full
    speed is rather noisy on my 701 and the automatic control has never used
    it.  If you really want this e.g. to prolong the life of an EeePC used
    as a server, you can always use manual mode.  hwmon has always been
    fairly machine-specific, and you're in a tiny minority (or elite :-).
    I'm sure you're smart enough to notice that the fan doesn't turn on to
    full speed when you try this mode, either by ear or checking
    fan_input1.
    
    We could even claim to be honouring the spirit of the documentation.
    "0" really means "safe mode".  EeePCs default to automatic mode, ie that
    is what Asus will actually test.  Since we do not provide any way to
    tamper with the temperature threshold, automatic mode _is_ the safe
    option).

    eeepc-laptop: Remove redundant NULL checks
    
    The acpi device callbacks add, start, remove, suspend and resume can
    never be called with a NULL acpi_device. Each callsite in acpi/scan.c
    has to dereference the device in order to get the ops structure, e.g.
    
        struct acpi_device *acpi_dev = to_acpi_device(dev);
        struct acpi_driver *acpi_drv = acpi_dev->driver;
    
        if (acpi_drv && acpi_drv->ops.suspend)
            return acpi_drv->ops.suspend(acpi_dev, state);
    
    Remove all checks for acpi_dev == NULL within these callbacks.
    
    Also remove the checks for acpi_driver_data(acpi_dev) == NULL. None of
    these checks could fail unless the driver does something strange
    (which none of them do), the acpi core did something terribly wrong,
    or we have a memory corruption issue. If this does happen then it's
    best to dereference the pointer and crash noisily.

    If some joker changes the permission to permit reads, then return -EIO

    thinkpad-acpi: preserve rfkill state across suspend/resume
    
    Since the rfkill rework in 2.6.31, the driver is always resuming with
    the radios disabled.
    
    Change thinkpad-acpi to ask the firmware to resume with the radios in
    the last state.  This fixes the Bluetooth and WWAN rfkill switches.
    
    Note that it means we respect the firmware's oddities.  Should the
    user toggle the hardware rfkill switch on and off, it might cause the
    radios to resume enabled.
    
    UWB is an unknown quantity since it has nowhere the same level of
    firmware support (no control over state storage in NVRAM, for
    example), and might need further fixing.  Testers welcome.
    
    This change fixes a regression from 2.6.30.

    thinkpad-acpi: fix default brightness_mode for R50e/R51
    
    According to a report, the R50e wants EC-based brightness control,
    even if it uses an Intel GPU.  The current driver default was reported
    to not work at all.
    
    This bug can be worked around by the "brightness_mode=3" module
    parameter.
    
    Change the default of the R50e and R51 2xxx models (which use the same
    EC firmware, 1V) to TPACPI_BRGHT_Q_EC, but keep TPACPI_BRGHT_Q_ASK set
    for now, as I'd like to get more reports.
    
    This fixes a regression caused by commit
    59fe4fe34d7afdf63208124f313be9056feaa2f4,
    "thinkpad-acpi: fix incorrect use of TPACPI_BRGHT_MODE_ECNVRAM"
    
    Kernel 2.6.31 also needs this fix.

    ACPI: Notify the _PPC evaluation status to the platform
    
    According to the ACPI spec(section 8.4.4.3) OSPM should convey the _PPC
    evaluations status to the platform if there exists the _OST object.
    The _OST contains two arguments:
    	The first is the PERFORMANCE notificatin event.
    	The second is the status of _PPC object.
    OSPM will convey the _PPC evaluation status to the platform.
    Of course when the module parameter of "ignore_ppc" is added, OSPM won't
    evaluate the _PPC object. But it will call the _OST object.
    
    At the same time the _OST object will be evaluated only when the PERFORMANCE
    notification event is received.

    thermal: Only set passive_delay for forced_passive cooling
    
    Setting polling_delay is useless as passive_delay has priority,
    so the value shown in proc isn't the actual polling delay. It
    also gives the impression to the user that he can change the
    polling interval through proc, while in fact he can't.
    
    Also, unset passive_delay when the forced passive trip point is

    Values below 1000 milli-celsius don't make sense and can cause the
    system to go into a thermal heart attack: the actual temperature

    An additional problem is that values below 1000 will show as 0 in
