I'm doing this in two stages, first the WMI core driver change and then
the dell-dmi-aio driver since there is a dependency there. The WMI core
driver patch I'm submitting upstream is a little different from the one
here because the WMI driver has changed quite a bit between Maverick and
the upstream version. 

Hope that explains the situation.
