Not going to happen. So you're on v6 already and a) no one has mentioned that introducing a new driver AND making core framework changes (in a different subsystem to boot) in one patch is bad and b) this is the first time you've Cc'ed the maintainers of the aforementioned subsystem? Moving forward you should split this patch into component parts and resend -- only this time ensure you Cc all maintainers in the first instance, rather than as as afterthought. > > -config INT340X_THERMAL > > - tristate "ACPI INT340X thermal drivers" > > - depends on X86 && ACPI > > - select THERMAL_GOV_USER_SPACE > > - select ACPI_THERMAL_REL > > - select ACPI_FAN This patch also relies on backlight as well, no?
