Hi Linus,

please pull from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-acpi-2.6.git release

This augments the pull request I made yesterday with a fix for the 2.6.24 SBS regression and some dmesg spam removal.

This will update the files shown below.

thanks!

-Len

ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: fix lenovo keymap for brightness

Starting in 2.6.23...

Several reports from X60 users complained that the default Lenovo keymap issuing EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP/DOWN input events caused major issues when the proper brightness support through ACPI video.c was loaded.

Therefore, remove the generation of these events by default, which is the right thing for T60, X60, R60, T61, X61 and R61 with their latest BIOSes.

Distros that want to misuse these events into OSD reporting (which requires an ugly hack from hell in HAL) are welcome to set up the key map they need through HAL. That way, we don't break everyone else's systems.

ACPI: video_device_list corruption

The ->cap fields of struct acpi_video_device and struct acpi_video_bus are 1B each, not 4B. The oversized memset()'s corrupted the subsequent list_head fields. This resulted in silent corruption without CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST and BUG's with it. This patch uses sizeof() to pass the proper bounds to the memset() calls and thereby correct the bugs.

ACPI: battery: fix ACPI battery technology reporting

At least some systems report technology information with trailing spaces:

{pts/1}% cat -E /var/tmp/bat/2.6.23 | grep type
battery type: Li-ION $

Use strncasecmp to compare model string to skip trailing part

ACPI: acpiphp: Remove dmesg spam on device remove

In cases where acpi_pci_bind() does not
attach device data, acpi_pci_unbind()
complains via an ACPI exception about the missing data when the device is removed. For example, acpi_pci_bind() does not attach data for non-existent device functions so when the device is removed using the ACPI PCI hotplug driver 'acpiphp' an ACPI exception is logged for every non-existent function. This patch avoids the confusing log messages by removing the unnecessary ACPI exception.
