This serie of patches deals with the checkpatch errors and warnings
found in the ./drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c file. In total
approx. 76 items have been fixed and in particular these are:
        - spaces required around that '?' (ctx:VxW)
        - "foo* const bar" should be "foo * const bar"
        - Prefer seq_puts to seq_printf
        - Missing a blank line after declarations
        - braces {} are not necessary for any arm of this statement
        - inline keyword should sit between storage class and type
        - static const char * array should probably be
          static const char * const
        - simple_strtoul is obsolete, use kstrtoul instead
        - __packed is preferred over __attribute__((packed))
        - Missing a blank line after declarations
        - Unnecessary space before function pointer arguments
        - Use #include <linux/uaccess.h> instead of <asm/uaccess.h>
        - Prefer [subsystem eg: netdev]_dbg([subsystem]dev, ... then
          dev_dbg(dev, ... then pr_debug(...  to printk(KERN_DEBUG ...

The most significiant change is the "simple_strtoul is obsolete, use
kstrtoul instead" therefore this patch should be reviewed carefully.

The linux-next tree (36efbdf) has been used as a base for this work.
