thinkpad_acpi stopped working

Somehow, since yesterday, thinkpad_acpi stopped working for me.

The module is loaded:

florian@ginny ~ % lsmod | grep thinkpad
thinkpad_acpi          62600  0 
rfkill                 15498  2 cfg80211,thinkpad_acpi
snd                    58362  12 snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec_conexant,thinkpad_acpi,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hwdep,snd_pcm,snd_timer
nvram                   5869  1 thinkpad_acpi

However, some buttons seem to report different events. For example, Fn+F2 (lock) used to report

ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001002

now it reports

button/screenlock SCRNLCK 00000080 00000000

same for some other buttons. All ibm/hotkey stuff seems to be gone.
Also, when I rotate my laptop to table mode, the ACPI-event is missing as well.

However, ${ibm_fan} in conky seems to be working, and /proc/acpi/ibm is there as well.

Last stuff I did:

- Complete sysupgrade (yaourt -Suya)
- Cleaned orphaned packages (pacman -Rs $(pacman -Qtdq))
