This patch was merged into Linus's tree today. I updated my branch with
a direct backport.

The following changes since commit c37dcf3c2155becf5f2a2cd650fafff8960cb6e9:

  UBUNTU: Ubuntu-2.6.38-10.46 (2011-06-28 14:38:06 +0100)

are available in the git repository at:
  git://kernel.ubuntu.com/sforshee/ubuntu-natty.git acer-wmi

Lee, Chun-Yi (1):
      acer-wmi: does not poll device status when WMI event is available

Seth Forshee (2):
      acer-wmi: Only update rfkill status for associated hotkey events
      acer-wmi: Add support for Aspire 1830 wlan hotkey

First two are (now) upstream and have the right references. Last one

acer-wmi: Add support for Aspire 1830 wlan hotkey

does not seem to be there, yet. Is there any expectation when that will land
(this is the simplest of the three)?

The 3rd patch should be 'UBUNTU: SAUCE:' for now. Otherwise,

It's queued for 3.1 [1]. I'll also be sending this patch for oneiric
once the second one filters in from Linus's tree.

Ok, normally I'd probably wait till everything is upstream for
non-life-threatening issues. Though the last bit really is tiny and queued...
