Ok, interesting. Looking at the DSDTs I have here, TOHK isn't always 
present on TOS1900 devices. However:

The INFO method is, so this looks like a good call.

Yeah, that shouldn't matter. So it simply looks like in the notification

give us the key back? I'll send a test patch later (don't have any 
hardware to test right now).
