Recently we met an issue on lots of Lenovo thinkpad laptops (those
laptops are not released to market yet), the issue is that the
thinkpad_acpi.ko can't be automatically loaded as before.

Through debugging, we found the HKEY_HID is LEN0268 instead of
LEN0068 on those machines, and the MHKV is 0x200 instead of
0x100. So adding the new ID into the driver.

With Henrique's ack, I've queued this to testing.

However, in the commit message you mention two deltas:

1) HKEY_HID is LEN0268
2) MHKV is 0x200

This patch appears to address only #1. Is another patch needed for #2?

The #2 was already addressed by the commit:

commit 0118c2d3eac0545d4095877e5a015b5dc763b3c2

    thinkpad_acpi: Add support for HKEY version 0x200

    Lenovo Thinkpad devices T460, T460s, T460p, T560, X260 use
    HKEY version 0x200 without adaptive keyboard.

    HKEY version 0x200 has method MHKA with one parameter value.
    Passing parameter value 1 will get hotkey_all_mask (the same like
    HKEY version 0x100 without parameter). Passing parameter value 2 to
    MHKA method will retrieve hotkey_all_adaptive_mask. If 0 is returned in
    that case there is no adaptive keyboard available.


It looks like the Lenovo machines have the change for HKEY_HID and MHKV as below:

in the past: HKEY_HID=LEN0068  MHKV=0x100
about one year ago: HKEY_HID=LEN0068 MHKV=0x200
recently: HKEY_HID=LEN0268 MHKV=0x200


Cheers,
Hui.


(I'm digging myself out of a deep backlog, so if it's here already, I'll find
it, but it might expedite things to point it out to me).

Thanks for the patch.
