Submitting this on Christmas probably didn't help to get it noticed. Even
though I have long wanted the ability to control charging, I totally missed it.
A little explanation of why stopping and starting charging is desirable would
probably be a desirable, as well.

Not sure about the naming convention change as I believe that this module is
appropriate to more Lenovo models than just the Thinkpad. Maybe it is time to
just bite the bullet and go to "Lenovo". Not that many IBM units around any
more.

That said, any change might cause confusion for current users when acpi_ibm no
longer loads.Is that worse than for newer users who no longer think of IBM and
Thinkpad as related.
