If you did the following steps:
sudo cp ./thinkpad_acpi.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates
sudo depmod -a
then the modified driver will be used instead of the original one after reboot. Without the copy to /lib/modules/*/update, the original (not-working) driver is used.
Let me make sure with you that in #78, you insmod without any parameter, right?

If so, I think the quirking works.
