Correct behaviour.  thinkpad-acpi is supposed to suppress those events.  One
is supposed to use the generic ACPI support (and events) for the LID button,
since it works fine on thinkpads.

However, if you make a valid case for me for the reason you need the
thinkpad-specific 0x5001 and 0x5002 events (and keep in mind that you will
STILL get the generic LID events, which could cause things to be triggered
twice, etc), I can remove the code that filters them out.
