Subject: [PATCH] Make thinkpad_acpi to support also NEC Lavie X1475JAS
This patch changes get_thinkpad_model_data in thinkpad_acpi.c
to check for additional vendor name "NEC" in order to support
NEC Lavie X1475JAS notebook (and perhaps more).
The reason of this works with minimal changes is because NEC
Lavie X1475JAS is a Thinkpad inside. ACPI dumps reveals its
OEM ID to be "LENOVO", BIOS version "R2PET30W" matches typical
Lenovo BIOS version, the existence of HKEY of LEN0268, with DMI
fw string is "R2PHT24W".
I compiled and tested with my own machine, attached the dmesg
below as proof of work:
[ 6.288932] thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad ACPI Extras v0.26
