[PATCH 15/20] platform: x86: asus_acpi: world-writable procfs files

From: Vasiliy Kulikov
Date: Fri Feb 04 2011 - 07:24:11 EST


Don't allow everybody to change ACPI settings. The comment says that it
is done deliberatelly, however, the comment before disp_proc_write()
says that at least one of these setting is experimental.
