All changes in this patch set look good to me.

I wonder if it makes sense to move the driver to drivers/platform/x86/, which
has a bunch of similar ones already.
That would be a good idea IMHO.
I agree; drivers/char doesn't seem to be a good location. Guess it is mostly historic
that it is there in the first place. Maybe it can even use the API provided by the
dell-laptop driver if I can ever figure out how that works.
Copying the platform-x86 mailing list and Matthew for additional input.
Thanks,
Guenter
