NAME

ibm_get_attention_status - callback method to get attention LED status

SYNOPSIS

"SYNOPSIS"

int ibm_get_attention_status (struct hotplug_slot * slot, u8 * status);

ARGUMENTS

slot: the hotplug_slot to work with
status: returns what the LED is set to (0 or 1)

DESCRIPTION

this method is registered with the acpiphp module as a callback to do the device specific task of getting the LED status

Because there is no direct method of getting the LED status directly from an ACPI call, we read the aPCI table and parse out our slot descriptor to read the status from that.
