Subject: ACPI / button: Add ACPI Button event via netlink routine
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=03132845a32cdd2cc4b1b913253e0f8a9f1b4494;p=karo-tx-linux.git

ACPI / button: Add ACPI Button event via netlink routine

commit 0bf6368ee8f25826d0645c0f7a4f17c8845356a4 upstream.

Commit 1696d9d (ACPI: Remove the old /proc/acpi/event interface)
removed ACPI Button event which originally was sent to userspace via
/proc/acpi/event. This caused ACPI shutdown regression on gentoo
in VirtualBox. Now ACPI events are sent to userspace via netlink,
so add ACPI Button event back via netlink routine.
