    thinkpad-acpi: deprecate hotkey_bios_mask · 06777be6
    Henrique de Moraes Holschuh authored
    Some analysis of the ACPI DSDTs shows that the HKEY pre-enabled mask
    is always 0x80c (FN+F3,FN+F4 and FN+F12), which are the hotkeys that
    the second gen of HKEY firmware supported (the first gen didn't report
    any hotkeys, the second reported these tree hotkeys but had no mask
    support, and the third added mask support).
    
    So, this is probably some sort of backwards compatibility with older
    versions of the IBM ThinkVantage suite.  We have no use for that, and
    I know of exactly ZERO users of that attribute, anyway.  Start the
    process of getting rid of it.
