Subject: thinkpad-acpi: module autoloading for newer Lenovo ThinkPads.

From: Manoj Iyer <[email protected]>

commit 9fbdaeb4f4dd14a0caa9fc35c496d5440c251a3a upstream.

The newer Lenovo ThinkPads have HKEY HID of LEN0068 instead
of IBM0068. Added new HID so that thinkpad_acpi module will
auto load on these newer Lenovo ThinkPads.
