We previously needed that so we could install either a fixed event handler or a notify handler, but the Linux/ACPI code now handles that for us, so we don't need to worry about it. Note that this removes the FF/CM annotation from the "info" files in /proc. For example, /proc/acpi/button/PWRF/info: -type: Power Button (FF) +type: Power Button I don't think there's anything meaningful user-space can do by knowing whether a button is a control method or a fixed hardware button, so nobody should be looking at the FF/CM.
