Given the ACP_IBM_BAY implementation is more complete (or seems to be, please comment if that isn't the case) we should probably actually make sure that is the *preferred* code used (on suitable hardware) at run time surely?
That way distributions can build both options and on IBM/Lenovo hardware it will use the IBM ACPI code and otherwise will use the generic ACPI BAY code?
Perhaps the IBM_ACPI_BAY code should go away and any missing functionality provided there should be merged into ACPI_BAY? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
