Looks like a trigger, not a cause... Anyway, this construct:

unsigned char state;

[...]

if (!!test_bit(SW_TABLET_MODE, ebook_switch_idev->sw) == state)

doesn't look legit enough.
That redundant double-negation [of boolean value], together with
comparing boolean to char, provokes compilers to think the author
made logical mistakes here, although it works as expected.
Could you please try (if it's not automated build which you can't
modify) the following:

--- a/arch/x86/platform/olpc/olpc-xo1-sci.c
+++ b/arch/x86/platform/olpc/olpc-xo1-sci.c
@@ -80,7 +80,7 @@ static void send_ebook_state(void)
return;
}

- if (!!test_bit(SW_TABLET_MODE, ebook_switch_idev->sw) == state)
+ if (test_bit(SW_TABLET_MODE, ebook_switch_idev->sw) == !!state)
return; /* Nothing new to report. */

input_report_switch(ebook_switch_idev, SW_TABLET_MODE, state);
---
We'd take it into the bitmap tree then. The series revealed
a fistful of existing code issues already :)
