Hello, Following patch reverts commit that changed usleep() to mleep() in ACPI's EC driver. That change made hotkeys on my Thinkpad T21 unusable after resume. This time, it's regression from 2.6.29 (it was repeadly broken and fixed in older kernels too). See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11674 for reference. I've tested this patch with 2.6.31-rc9 -- hotkeys work again. Please consider applying this to 2.6.31-tree and maybe 2.6.30-stable as well. Thanks. commit 215c964fcccedc3f8967d57f7051e803e746a38d Author: Karol Lewandowski <karol.k.lewandowski@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Sep 7 21:13:02 2009 +0200 Revert "ACPI: EC: Separate delays for MSI hardware" This reverts commit 34ff4dbccccce54c83b1234d39b7ad9e548a75dd. Revert timeout to old value (larger than spec requires[*]) instead of using vendor-dependent delays. Without this revert my Thinkpad T21 stops generating hotkey events after resume (with 2.6.31-rc9). See bug #11674 for reference. [*] ACPI spec at http://www.acpi.info/DOWNLOADS/ACPIspec30b.pdf page 386, "Burst Enable Embedded Controller" defines EC's response timeout as =< 50us.
