** Description changed:

+ == SRU Justification ==
+ Per the Oneiric Ubuntu Kernel Delta review, we purposely decided to disable 
the fsam7400 kernel module because it was an out of tree module which produces 
an extra maintenance burden and overhead every release.  Should anyone object, 
it would be re-enabled.  If there were no objections, it would be dropped in 
the subsequent 12.04 Precise LTS release.  A bug reporter has requested we 
re-enable this module to support the rfkill switch on their Fujitsu laptop
+ 
+ == Impact ==
+ Confirmed to affect Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pro V3505, likely other Fujitsu 
models are affected as well.
+ 
+ == Fix ==
+ Re-enable the fsam7400 module
+ 
+ == Test Case ==
+ With the driver, confirm the ability to toggle the rfkill switch.  Without 
the driver, this is not possible.

  After upgrade (Linux 3.0.0-12-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 7 14:50:42
  UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux) there are no fsam7400 kernel module.
  
  I've found that Kernel Team "yank the code"?
