Since Rui's patch is an incremental to netlink events,
which are new in 2.6.23, I'm going to request Rui's patch
for inclusion in 2.6.23.  I'm also going to include
"[PATCH] ACPI: Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal"
with it.

They'll both be in the acpi-test tree upon my next push,
probably tonight.  maybe go to Linus as soon as tomorrow
since delay in the -rc3 timeframe would be folly.

thanks,
