Subject: [PATCH 0/4] acerhdf/thermal: adding new models and appropriate governor

Hi,

finally I found time, to do some work on acerhdf.

This patch series is intended to:

  * Introduce "manual mode" support (Patch 1 & 2), which is needed to control
    the fan of a few new models.  Unfortunately this extends lines defining
    the bios table over 80 characters, but all other methods make the code
    really ugly and hard to read.  So I hope for the reason of readability it
    is ok to break this rule.

  * Add an appropriate thermal governor (Patch 3 & 4).  Manipulating and
    fiddling around with the step-wise governor has been a very fragile thing
    in the past and as it broke again, I used the opportunity to add a two
    point thermal governor which implements the actual fan handling required by
    acerhdf and puts from my point of view things straight.

Please test/review the patches and send me your comments.

Thanks and kind regards,
peter
