create drivers/platform/x86/ from drivers/misc/
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>

+ This is a driver for the IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad laptops. It adds
+ support for Fn-Fx key combinations, Bluetooth control, video
+ output switching, ThinkLight control, UltraBay eject and more.
+ For more information about this driver see
+ <file:Documentation/laptops/thinkpad-acpi.txt> and
+ <http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/> .
+
+ This driver was formerly known as ibm-acpi.

+
+config THINKPAD_ACPI_DEBUG

+ If you are not sure, say N here.
+
+config THINKPAD_ACPI_DOCK
+ bool "Legacy Docking Station Support"
+ depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
+ depends on ACPI_DOCK=n
+ default n
+ ---help---
+ Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle docking station events.
+ This support was made obsolete by the generic ACPI docking station
+ support (CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK). It will allow locking and removing the
+ laptop from the docking station, but will not properly connect PCI
+ devices.
+
+ If you are not sure, say N here.
+
+config THINKPAD_ACPI_BAY
+ bool "Legacy Removable Bay Support"
+ depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
+ default y
+ ---help---
+ Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle removable bays. It will

+ notifications when the bay lever is ejected or inserted.
+
+ If you are not sure, say Y here.
+
+config THINKPAD_ACPI_VIDEO
+ bool "Video output control support"
+ depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
+ default y
+ ---help---
+ Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to provide an interface to control
+ the various video output ports.
+
+ This feature often won't work well, depending on ThinkPad model,
+ display state, video output devices in use, whether there is a X
+ server running, phase of the moon, and the current mood of
+ Schroedinger's cat. If you can use X.org's RandR to control
+ your ThinkPad's video output ports instead of this feature,
+ don't think twice: do it and say N here to save some memory.
+
+ If you are not sure, say Y here.
+
+config THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL
+ bool "Support NVRAM polling for hot keys"
+ depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
+ default y
+ ---help---
+ Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
+ the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
+ need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
+ unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
+
+ ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
+ unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
+
+ NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
+ IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
+ Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
+
+ If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
+ it is strictly necessary to do so.
+
+config INTEL_MENLOW
+ tristate "Thermal Management driver for Intel menlow platform"
+ depends on ACPI_THERMAL
+ select THERMAL
+ ---help---
+ ACPI thermal management enhancement driver on

+ depends on ACPI
+ depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
+ depends on HWMON
+ depends on EXPERIMENTAL
+ depends on RFKILL
+ ---help---
+ This driver supports the Fn-Fx keys on Eee PC laptops.
+ It also adds the ability to switch camera/wlan on/off.
+
+ If you have an Eee PC laptop, say Y or M here.
