From ecf2a80a97b3d38ae008fa8a3cb98cd540ac1eae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2007 22:00:09 -0300 Subject: ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add a fan-control feature master toggle Len Brown considers that an active by default fan control interface in laptops may be too close to giving users enough rope. There is a good chance he is quite correct on this, especially if someone decides to use that interface in applets and users are not aware of its risks. This patch adds a master switch to thinkpad-acpi that enables or disables the entire fan-control feature as a module parameter: "fan_control". It defaults to disabled. Set it to non-zero to enable fan control. Also, the patch removes the expermiental status from fan control, since it is stable enough to not be called experimental, and the master switch makes it safe enough to do so.
