As far as I know, that means something is listening to the input device, and
feeding the events it get from there back to ACPI.  I.e. it is a major ugly
hack from hell that, at first glance, looks quite useless (it is not
generating events compatible with legacy acpid scripts).

The kernel, and thinkpad-acpi, probably have nothing to do with it.

Eh, no.  I need to rewrite those pages and update them one of these days,
but it is a low-priority thing :-(
