bit...

Thanks, that's useful.

thinkpad-acpi can't handle that kind of cross-driver enable/disable
internally most of the time, it needs to be done by userspace.  You need
an udev rule, acpid rule, or systemd-udev rule, for example.

If someone deploys a generic "supress input devices" in-kernel interface
(notifier), I could add the calls, though.  AFAIK, it doesn't exist.
