Subject[PATCH] ACPI: Run fixed button devices' notify callback in the process context
Date
Currently fixed button devices' notify callbacks are running in the
interrupt context. It's not necessary and prevent calling functions
with mutex lock(E,G evaluating ACPI method). Otherwise, it's different
with non-fixed button device whose notify callback is running in the process
context. This patch is to make fixed button device's notify
callback in the process context and this also can avoid dead lock
when using netlink to report button event to user space.
