Compile it with*out* THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED, and do this to enable
hotkeys:

echo 1 > /sys/bus/platform/devices/thinkpad_acpi/hotkey_enable
cat /sys/bus/platform/devices/thinkpad_acpi/hotkey_recommended_mask > /sys/bus/platform/devices/thinkpad_acpi/hotkey_mask

And re-test :-) You are not enabling all hotkeys you want...

If you want to use THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED, you need updated userspace.
