[PATCH] platform/x86: thinkpad_acpi: Accept flat mode for type 4 multi mode status

[Benjamin Berg]

On the X1 Yoga 2nd Generation and most likely other notebooks the FLAT
mode is reported. Decode it correctly rather than warning about an
unexpected multi mode status to be reported.

If we can't check on all available hardware, better to avoid "doing
for all" fixes.
I suppose DMI match can help here.

It would be nice to hear from Henrique and others as well.

The common practice is to put
/* fallthrough */
instead.

We don't use network subsystem style of comments.

The documentation I saw suggests that the flat mode cannot be detected
by machines reporting a multi mode status of type 4. This is why the
original patch excluded the FLAT mode in the list of valid modes on
those devices.

I think it is safe to simply assume that all laptops reporting type 4
can actually detect the flat state. Doing so will not affect actual
state reporting on machines that may not be able to detect it. And I
don't think that the information whether the flat state can be detected
or not is interesting enough to bother with DMI matches.
