A new version of the tp_smapi driver is available.

This version fixes a locking bug which may affect system stability.
All users are advised to upgrade.

0.21  2006-06-21
----------------
- Compatibility with kernel 2.6.17.
- hdaps: Fixed a locking bug. This further reduces (completely solves?) the
  EC hangs problem.
  (Thanks to Rasto, Andrew and Whoopie for helping track this down!)
- hdaps: Support for ThinkPad T60: added 0x04 as valid initial latch value
- hdaps: Mousedev poll timer was not restarted after resume from suspend.
- tp_base: Added verbose debug output, enabled by the "debug=1" module
  parameter (and by "make load DEBUG=1")
- tp_base: Cosmetic fix to tp_base DMI vendor reporting (patch by Whoopie).
- Cleaned up some printk()s.
- Makefile: "make load" now enables dmesg debug output only if given DEBUG=1.
- Makefile: will not delete hdaps.c if edited manually after generation.
