platform/x86: thinkpad_acpi: unhandled HKEY 0x60b0 and 0x60b1

Hi

The thinkpad_acpi driver constantly reports about unhandled events on
my ThinkPad X1 5gen. The logs look like this:

kernel: thinkpad_acpi: unknown possible thermal alarm or keyboard event received
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: unhandled HKEY event 0x60b1
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: please report the conditions when this event
happened to ibm-acpi-devel@...

kernel: thinkpad_acpi: unknown possible thermal alarm or keyboard event received
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: unhandled HKEY event 0x60b0
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: please report the conditions when this event
happened to ibm-acpi-devel@...

I have no clue what triggers them. However, the 0x60b1 event seems to
notify about some kind of action, and 0x60b0 seems to notify about its
end (like FAN-START, and FAN-STOP). The 0x60b0 follows 0x60b1 usually
in a timespan between 1s-10s.

The event occurs even when the laptop is not moved/touched, but only
performs random computations. The first time this occurs is usually
during user-space startup, which might just be the time the module is
loaded. So far, I did not see any other event occurring before/after
it, which might give any hints.

What is the recommended way to deal with that? I am having a hard-time
figuring out what triggers it, but at the same time it spams the
system-logs to a degree that after 1h of uptime, the vast majority of
the system log is cluttered with those messages.

I can provide a patch to ignore these events in the driver? Or does
anyone have access to Lenovo developers to ask for help?

Thanks
David
