Joe, you provided a lot of review, are you happy with this version?

Rafael, any concerns over the justification to use ACPI instead of
platform_driver/i2c_driver as described in the comment block below?

Chen, a couple more nitpics below. No need to resend if Joe and Rafael have no objections. I'll correct and queue. For now, queued to testing. Thanks!

It's typical to include the list here as well:

L: platform-driver-x86@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Also, spaces should have been tabs to be consistent with existing whitespace
usage in MAINTAINERS. Consider displaying whitespace in your editor if you
don't already.
