thinkpad-acpi: disable broken bay and dock subdrivers

2009-08-16T21:26:44+00:00

commit 550e7fd8afb7664ae7cedb398c407694e2bf7d3c upstream.

Currently, the ThinkPad-ACPI bay and dock drivers are completely
broken, and cause a NULL pointer derreference in kernel mode (and,
therefore, an OOPS) when they try to issue events (i.e. on dock,
undock, bay ejection, etc).

OTOH, the standard ACPI dock driver can handle the hotplug bays and
docks of the ThinkPads just fine (including batteries) as of 2.6.27.
In fact, it does a much better job of it than thinkpad-acpi ever did.

It is just not worth the hassle to find a way to fix this crap without
breaking the (deprecated) thinkpad-acpi dock/bay ABI.  This is old,
deprecated code that sees little testing or use.

As a quick fix suitable for -stable backports, mark the thinkpad-acpi
bay and dock subdrivers as BROKEN in Kconfig.  The dead code will be
removed by a later patch.

This fixes bugzilla #13669, and should be applied to 2.6.27 and later.

[IA64] Fix uniprocessor build w.r.t. SGI_XP and SGI_GRU

2008-08-04T20:39:28+00:00

The SGI XP and GRU drivers only work on SMP systems ... the Kconfig
file only disallowed them for non-SMP X86.

misc: add HP WMI laptop extras driver

2008-07-25T17:53:28+00:00

This driver adds support for reading and configuring certain information
on modern HP laptops with WMI BIOS interfaces.  It supports enabling and
disabling the ambient light sensor, querying attached displays and hard
drive temperature, sending events on docking and querying the state of the
dock and toggling the state of the wifi, bluetooth and wwan hardware via
rfkill.  It also makes the little "(i)" button work on machines that send
that via WMI rather than via the keyboard controller.
