acer-wmi-remove-commandline-init.patch

Hi Martin, 

Could you please help to try this test patch? I removed acer-wmi try to sync
the commandline devices state to EC when initial.

After I traced DSDT and acer-wmi init function, when acer-wmi try to change
device state by evaluate WMBA method, it request ECW1 to write data and also
set ECMC SystemIO register to non-zero.

The odd thing is ECMC must set back to zero by something, I thought EC
code/driver need set ECMC back to 0, but it didn't.

And,
This issue didn't happen before 2.6.38 kernel, I guess that because Matthew
fixed the capitalisation of WMID_GUID1 in 2.6.38 kernel, the acer-wmi driver
start to do REAL wmi call to DSDT method then fall into the trap.
