  Since 2011, the WMI subsystem is marked as orphaned,
which means that a important part of platform support
for modern notebooks and even desktops is receiving
not enough maintenance.
So i decided to take over the maintenance of the WMI
subsystem.

Thank you for your patch/series, I've applied this patch
(series) to the pdx86 fixes branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=fixes

Note it will show up in the pdx86 fixes branch once I've pushed
my local branch there, which might take a while.

I will include this patch in my next fixes pull-req to Linus
for the current kernel development cycle.

Regards,

Hans
