Len,

Please pull from:
git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/linux-acpi-2.6/ibm-acpi-2.6.git for-upstream/acpi-test

ACPI: ibm-acpi: move driver to drivers/misc hierarchy
ACPI: ibm-acpi: rename driver to thinkpad-acpi
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: cleanup Kconfig for thinkpad-acpi
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add compatibility MODULE_ALIAS entry
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: cleanup after rename
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: update MAINTAINERS
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: rename register_ibmacpi_subdriver
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: rename one stray use of ibm-acpi in a comment
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: rename module glue
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: rename thinkpad constants
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: update fan firmware documentation
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add debug mode
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: clean up probing and move init to subdrivers
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add subdriver debug statements
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: uncouple subdriver init from ibms struct
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: improve thinkpad detection
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: use bitfields to hold subdriver flags
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: use bitfields for module flags
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: prepare for device model conversion
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: mark acpi helper functions __must_check
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: clean up hotkey subdriver
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: cleanup bluetooth and wan for sysfs conversion
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: cleanup video subdriver
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: clean up CMOS commands subdriver
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: cleanup thermal subdriver for sysfs conversion
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: improve fan watchdog messages
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: register with the device model
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: driver sysfs conversion
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add infrastructure for the sysfs device attributes
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: protect fan and hotkey data structures
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add sysfs support to the thermal subdriver
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add sysfs support to fan subdriver
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add a safety net for TPEC fan control mode
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add sysfs support to the cmos command subdriver
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: update brightness sysfs interface support

(the above should not cause any probles if you already pulled
from that branch, as I have not rebased the branch or modified
any of the above patches)

and to receive the following *new* patches:

ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add a fan-control feature master toggle
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: do not arm fan watchdog if it would not work
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: fix a fan watchdog invocation
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: map ENXIO to EINVAL for fan sysfs
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: improve fan control documentation
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: improve debugging for acpi helpers
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: improve dock subdriver initialization
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add sysfs support to hotkey subdriver
ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add sysfs support to wan and bluetooth subdrivers

This is some cleaning-up of the fan sysfs support and the "no fan
control by default" master switch (patches 1-5), some extra debugging
and a minor fix to a deprecated subdriver (patches 6, 7), and two more
sysfs conversions (patches 8, 9).

Please merge for 2.6.22.
