Hello Matthew, may I request that you include the patch sony-laptop: fully enable SNY controlled modems for 3.8 as well? I'd even like it to go to stable if you and Mattia agree. My rationale is: Making the driver set the same 3 bits which Windows set is obviously a bug fix and not a new feature. The fix is a simple oneliner, and is required for a number of "newer" laptops, where newer in this case includes most of 2012. Without this fix rfkill will fail silently, causing the wwan module to appear to be available but not working because the radio is disabled. This causes very hard to debug problems for end users and distributions. Ref the bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47751 See also the thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2040205 for an example of the problems this bug causes for end users.

The sony-laptop driver manages to disable the wwan device correctly but fails to re-enable it afterwards. -- mattia :wq! -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Sorry for nagging, but I assume the 3.9 merge window will close over the weekend and I haven't seen the pull request for the rest of these posted yet. I hope that still is the plan?

I hope that still is the plan? And yet another apology coming up... I see now that the pull request is sent a couple of days ago: http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg1490177.html although I still cannot find via gmane, where I am reading the platform-driver-x86 list. Anyway. Thanks for the work, and sorry for the noise.
