ACPI: ibm-acpi: rename driver to thinkpad-acpi
Rename the ibm-acpi driver to thinkpad-acpi. ThinkPads are not even made by IBM anymore, so it is high time to rename the driver... The name thinkpad-acpi was used sometime ago by a thinkpad-specific hotkey driver by Erik Rigtorp, around the 2.6.8-2.6.10 time frame. The driver apparently never got merged into mainline (it did make some trips through -mm). ibm-acpi was merged soon after, making its debut in 2.6.10. The reuse of the thinkpad-acpi name shouldn't be a problem as far as user confusion goes, as Erik's thinkpad-acpi apparently didn't get widespread use in the Linux ThinkPad community and most hits for thinkpad-acpi in google point to ibm-acpi anyway. Erik, if you read this, please consider the reuse of the thinkpad-acpi name as a compliment to your effort to make ThinkPads more useful to all of us.
