Above patches are well tested on Ubuntu 14.04 Beta with 3.13 kernel and Debian
with Linus tree.

Sorry 3a9d20bda1d6daae9d81a4cc4cc67238c5574d31 is about 150 lines.
But it's fundamental to initially support adaptive keyboard. It's hard to split.

At least 3.13 and 3.14.
Actually the patch logic should not affect any exist thinkpad models.
So I suggest
all stable trees should merge it if you want X1's adaptive keyboard working on.
