Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Use checkpatch.pl to make thinkpad_acpi.c error free:
 octal permissions

From: Simranjit Singh <simranjit.singh@...ebaby.org>

Using the checkpatch.pl script, there were 8 errors in thinkpad_acpi.c. I fixed them by changing permissions to octal,
and by adding parenthesis. 
On the current tree, if you use checkpatch.pl, thinkpad_acpi.c will have 8 errors. With my changes, there are 0 errors.
However, I have added 3 new warnings. 
I'm very new to kernel development, so if I messed up somewhere, please do tell me.
    
Changed binary permissions to octal in accordance with checkpatch.pl in thinkpad_acpi.c
