[PATCH 1/1] toshiba_acpi: Propagate the hotkey value via genetlink

From: Azael Avalos
Date: Sun Nov 15 2015 - 22:34:25 EST


The driver uses genetlink to inform userspace of events generated by
the system, but the data passed is always zero as there is no data to
pass, except for the hotkey event.

This patch propagates the hotkey value via genetlink so userspace can
make use of it.
