[patch 0/7] New misc/asus-laptop.c driver

[Corentin CHARY <corentincj@iksaif.net>]

Hi,
I've done a lot of work on asus_acpi, see :

diff asus_acpi.c asus-laptop.c -u | diffstat
 asus-laptop.c | 1663

So because the new driver work in a very different way, and have a new 
interface (no more /proc/acpi/asus/), I think it's time for 
misc/asus-laptop.c, but we should also keep asus_acpi.c for sometime.

In asus_acpi, we had to add all models by hand, and the list was growing very 
fast... The new detection system is inspired by ibm-acpi (we search well 
known acpi method, and if we found one then the feature is available).

Now leds are handled by /sys/class/led/asus:*/ , backlight 
with /sys/class/backlight/asus-laptop/ .
asus-laptop is now a platform driver, so files like wlan, bluetooth, 
ls_switch, ls_level, info, etc .. are now 
in /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/ .

These patch are designed to apply to  acpi-test-20060707-2.6.20-rc4, but as 
it's a new driver, it's easy to apply against other trees.
