250What: ACPI hotkey driver (CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY)
251When: 2.6.21
252Why: hotkey.c was an attempt to consolidate multiple drivers that use
253 ACPI to implement hotkeys. However, hotkeys are not documented
254 in the ACPI specification, so the drivers used undocumented
255 vendor-specific hooks and turned out to be more different than
256 the same.
257
258 Further, the keys and the features supplied by each platform
259 are different, so there will always be a need for
260 platform-specific drivers.
261
262 So the new plan is to delete hotkey.c and instead, work on the
263 platform specific drivers to try to make them look the same
264 to the user when they supply the same features.
265
266 hotkey.c has always depended on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL
