From 14c20688292583b3f7a8a595b65f6b5665616752 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Gortmaker Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2018 21:44:18 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: acerhdf: Remove cut-and-paste trap from instructions Just like we avoid specifying actual block devices like sda for fdisk and dd examples, we should not specify specific thermal zones here. On the platform I was testing on, zone0 was acpitz, and zone1 was for this acerhdf driver. Make the printk such that it won't work with a blind cut-and-paste, and force the user to determine which zone is correct for this driver.
