It's just a comment about how the mute button should be handled.  Since ACPI
appears to already handle the volume function without kernel intervention,
the question is whether it could also handle the mute function.  One would
be tempted to conclude that it can't or else the button events would already
be passed through (as are the volume buttons), but history has shown that
this may not necessarily be the case.

I cannot be sure since I only have a single example of Fujitsu hardware to
work with.  It seems entirely feasible that the bit change in BTNI is due to
the loss of the RFKILL button as a dedicated button.

It's useful for that purpose.

So where does this leave us with fujitsu-laptop?  I *think* the backlight
issue is beyond our control.  Is that your take on the subject?

With the minor changes in place I do not think this patch will cause any
regressions for other Fujitsu systems since it is only adding meaning to
bits of the flags_supported field, and older system do not have those bits
set.  Any comments Michel?
