This laptop has 5 SPIC managed buttons above the keyboard:
sound + and - as well as brightness, zoom and S1.
Possibly the entire VGN-A serie behaves the same.

Creating Type4 was a mistake in the first place. Some users report that
also Type3 vaios require the same extra hotkey handling which the Type4
for was menat to guard from.
Merging down Type4 into Type3 will just remove a useless distinction.

Recent Sony SR-series machines have an additional set of buttons accessed
via the 0x127 method rather than the 0x100 method. Add support for these.

Newer Vaios provide a full featured rfkill implementation via their
platform methods. Add support for enumerating the available devices and
providing rfkill access to them. Support for the physical kill switch is
added, with the devices moving into the HARD_BLOCKED state when toggled.

The current sony-laptop code assumes that the keyboard event method is
always located at slot 2 in the platform code. Remove this assumption and
add support for some additional hotkeys.

The latest Vaios can execute certain codepaths in two ways - either using
system management mode or using pure ACPI methods. The latter is only used
if the OS has called the ECON method. Ensure that this is done where the
method is available.

Newer Sony Vaios provide a new API for accessing platform functionality. It
consists of a set of standardised methods for enabling events and performing
queries. These are each identified by a unique handle. This patch adds
support for calling functions based on their handle and ports the existing
code for these machines over to it.

Most fasync implementations do something like:
return fasync_helper(...);
But fasync_helper() will return a positive value at times - a feature used
in at least one place. Thus, a number of other drivers do:
err = fasync_helper(...);
if (err < 0)
return err;
return 0;
In the interests of consistency and more concise code, it makes sense to
map positive return values onto zero where ->fasync() is called.

Move x86 platform specific drivers from drivers/misc/
to a new home under drivers/platform/x86/.
The community has been maintaining x86 vendor-specific
platform specific drivers under /drivers/misc/ for a few years.
The oldest ones started life under drivers/acpi.
They moved out of drivers/acpi/ because they don't actually
implement the ACPI specification, but either simply
use ACPI, or implement vendor-specific ACPI extensions.
In the future we anticipate...
drivers/misc/ will go away.
other architectures will create drivers/platform/<arch>
