That will basicaly lobotomize the driver, as the "hotkeys" are really the
entire firmware event interface(!).

Which thinkpad do you have that need CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL to
handle Fn+F4?   I don't expect that to be needed on anything newer than a
T32...

Can I have the full kernel log, please?
