Since ibm-acpi was renamed to thinkpad-acpi, rename and update its Kconfig
entries and Kconfig-related symbols accordingly.

Rename the ibm-acpi driver to thinkpad-acpi. ThinkPads are not even made
by IBM anymore, so it is high time to rename the driver...
The name thinkpad-acpi was used sometime ago by a thinkpad-specific hotkey
driver by Erik Rigtorp, around the 2.6.8-2.6.10 time frame. The driver
apparently never got merged into mainline (it did make some trips through
-mm). ibm-acpi was merged soon after, making its debut in 2.6.10.
The reuse of the thinkpad-acpi name shouldn't be a problem as far as user
confusion goes, as Erik's thinkpad-acpi apparently didn't get widespread
use in the Linux ThinkPad community and most hits for thinkpad-acpi in
google point to ibm-acpi anyway.
Erik, if you read this, please consider the reuse of the thinkpad-acpi name
as a compliment to your effort to make ThinkPads more useful to all of us.

ibm-acpi is not an ACPICA driver, so move it to drivers/misc as per Len
Brown's request.

Move drivers/acpi/sony_acpi.c to drivers/misc/sony-laptop.c with all the
necessary configuration.
The SONY_LAPTOP config option substitutes the old ACPI_SONY and is 'default n'
now.

Adds the new driver and make ASUS_LAPTOP and ACPI_ASUS
incompatible. It may be strange to use ASUS_CREATE_DEVICE_ATTR
and ASUS_SET_DEVICE_ATTR now, but these macro will be very
usefull in next patchs. ASUS_HANDLE and ASUS_HANDLE_INIT comes
from IBM_HANDLE and IBM_HANDLE_INIT, with some modification,
and will also be used in next patchs.

The SGI PCI-RT card, based on the SGI IOC4 chip, will be made available on
Altix XE (x86_64) platforms in the near future. As such it is now a
misnomer for the IOC4 base device driver to live under drivers/sn, and
would complicate builds for non-SN2.
This patch moves the IOC4 base driver code from drivers/sn to drivers/misc,
and updates the associated Makefiles and Kconfig files to allow building on
non-SN2 configs. Due to the resulting change in link order, it is now
necessary to use late_initcall() for IOC4 subdriver initialization.

Create a driver to support the platform-specific features
of MSI S270 laptops (and maybe other MSI laptops).
This driver implements a backlight device for controlling LCD brightness
(/sys/class/backlight/msi-laptop-bl/).
In addition it allows access to the WLAN and Bluetooth states
through a platform driver (/sys/devices/platform/msi-laptop-pf/).

A simple module to test Linux Kernel Dump mechanism. This module uses
jprobes to install/activate pre-defined crash points. At different crash
points, various types of crashing scenarios are created like a BUG(),
panic(), exception, recursive loop and stack overflow. The user can
activate a crash point with specific type by providing parameters at the
time of module insertion. Please see the file header for usage
information. The module is based on the Linux Kernel Dump Test Tool by
Fernando <http://lkdtt.sourceforge.net>.
This module could be merged with mainline. Jprobes is used here so that the
context in which crash point is hit, could be maintained. This implements
all the crash points as done by LKDTT except the one in the middle of
tasklet_action().

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
