ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: document keymap gotcha's (v2)

Publish the requirements for keymap changes.  This is a documentation
change, only.

Currently, people look at the thinkpad-acpi default keymaps, and think:
"modifying this is a trivial thing, it can't break systems, and there are
keys defined for foo and bar, but the driver has them as KEY_RESERVED.
Must have been an oversight, let me change it."

And since they never get to see the bug reports, because they are not
really a part of the Linux ThinkPad users community (linux-thinkpad
mailinglist, thinkwiki wiki, thinkpad forums) and laptop users are slow
to complain to distros about any breakages...

+	/* Requirements for changing the default keymaps:
+	 *
+	 * 1. Many of the keys are mapped to KEY_RESERVED for very
+	 *    good reasons.  Do not change them unless you have deep
+	 *    knowledge on the IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad firmware for
+	 *    the various ThinkPad models.  The driver behaves
+	 *    differently for KEY_RESERVED: such keys have their
+	 *    hot key mask *unset* in mask_recommended, and also
+	 *    in the initial hot key mask programmed into the
+	 *    firmware at driver load time, which means the firm-
+	 *    ware may react very differently if you change them to
+	 *    something else;
+	 *
+	 * 2. You must be subscribed to the linux-thinkpad and
+	 *    ibm-acpi-devel mailing lists, and you should read the
+	 *    list archives since 2007 if you want to change the
+	 *    keymaps.  This requirement exists so that you will
+	 *    know the past history of problems with the thinkpad-
+	 *    acpi driver keymaps, and also that you will be
+	 *    listening to any bug reports;
+	 *
+	 * 3. Do not send thinkpad-acpi specific patches directly to
+	 *    for merging, *ever*.  Send them to the linux-acpi
+	 *    mailinglist for comments.  Merging is to be done only
+	 *    through acpi-test and the ACPI maintainer.
+	 *
+	 * If the above is too much to ask, don't change the keymap.
+	 * Ask the thinkpad-acpi maintainer to do it, instead.
