Hi,

Over the last few weeks I've collected a few patches in my tree
coming from others and it's time to merge them upstream:

	1/5: sonypi: replace schedule_timeout() with msleep()
	2/5: sonypi: add another HELP button event
	3/5: sonypi: use MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR in miscdevice.minor assignment.
	4/5: sonypi: fold the contents of sonypi.h into sonypi.c
	5/5: sonypi: add fan and temperature status/control

Please apply.

Thanks.

Stelian.

Any chance that last one could be done via sysfs attributes instead of
new IOCTLs? This way you can control fan from the command line.

Good suggestion, but I'd rather not mix ioctls and sysfs attrs. In
some future version (development branch ? ahem) I'll switch to sysfs
for all the controls and implement backward compatibility in the
userspace tool.
