As said elsewhere, its identifier is LEN0068 instead if IBM0068, so a
non-patched acpi_ibm fails to bind.

However once patched, I can see it bind and provide sysctls. I don't
know the extent of what acpi_ibm is supposed to do, but I have to admit
I haven't noticed any benefit besides the added sysctls and the control
offered by those which actually work (e.g. switching wifi, bluetooth or
thinklight).
