Len,

Commit d4a82b0b566fc2784648c9751f0deb2b262c95ea:
ACPI: ibm_acpi: allow clean removal

Allow clean removal by setting notify_installed in the right place.

Which is currently on acpi-test, should IMHO be pushed to Linus for 2.6.19
and maybe even submitted to stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for 2.6.18.y.

Do you agree?  Can you push it to Linus if so?

I have a report that the lack of this commit causes rmmod ibm-acpi on a A21m
to consistently crash and burn if the kernel was compiled with ibm-acpi dock
support.
