...
Fixed up conflict in Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt manually.
Three main sets of changes:
1) dmi_get_system_info() return value should have been marked const,
since callers should not be changing that data.
2) const-ify DMI internals, since DMI firmware tables should,
whenever possible, be marked const to ensure we never ever write to
that data area.
3) const-ify DMI API, to enable marking tables const where possible
in low-level drivers.
And if we're really lucky, this might enable some additional
optimizations on the part of the compiler.
The bulk of the changes are #2 and #3, which are interrelated. #1 could
have been a separate patch, but it was so small compared to the others,
it was easier to roll it into this changeset.

Name it thinkpad-acpi version 0.16 to avoid any confusion with some 0.15
thinkpad-acpi development snapshots and backports that had input layer
support, but no hotkey_report_mode support.

Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because
it would create a legacy we don't want to support.
CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is
now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to
the ACPI core.
Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different
strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the
need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games. And it arrived
before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline
kernel, even, which is Good.
This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that
will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel
versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace
capabilities:
Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a
way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only
the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi
input devices.
It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use
both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event
interface, regardless of any module parameter.
The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with
userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input
devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface. To use this
mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2
module parameter.
The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through
sysfs, as well. thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not
support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace
to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs. This capability
will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there.

The asus laptop driver conditionnaly registers leds in asus_led_register()
depending on their availability, but unconditionnaly unregisters them all at
exit time or when the module fails to load. Unregistering not registered leds
result in the following Oops. So we should check before unregistering.

Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal in 6 months.
Re-name acpi_bus_generate_event() to acpi_bus_generate_proc_event()
to make sure there is no confusion that it is for /proc/acpi/event only.
Add CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT to allow removal of /proc/acpi/event.
There is no functional change if CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT=y

The previous events patch added a netlink event for every
user of the legacy /proc/acpi/event interface.
However, some users of /proc/acpi/event are really input events,
and they already report their events via the input layer.
Introduce a new interface, acpi_bus_generate_netlink_event(),
which is explicitly called by devices that want to repoprt
events via netlink. This allows the input-like events
to opt-out of generating netlink events. In summary:
events that are sent via netlink:
ac/battery/sbs
thermal
processor
thinkpad_acpi dock/bay
events that are sent via input layer:
button
video hotkey
thinkpad_acpi hotkey
asus_acpi/asus-laptop hotkey
sonypi/sonylaptop

The current kconfig help text was misleading users. Also, the default for
an input-layer-optimized support caused way too many problems without
up-to-date userspace in place.
So, rework the help text, and change the default to N. Note that
distributions are supposed to enable this option as soon as they update HAL
to a version that handles the thinkpad-acpi new input layer interface.

So, track if the platform driver and its driver attributes were registered,
and only deallocate them in that case.
This patch is based on Thomas Renninger's patch for the issue.
