I discussed this with Benjamin on IRC, and it seems there's nothing
here that can't be handled by user-space mappings, such as SDL2's
database.
Valve's SteamOS patch (at least the HID hunk) is really a work-around
for their big picture mode not being able to capture "KEY_MENU" it
seems:

There's 2 more problems shown with this device:
- the hid-generic warning above is "the bt stack forgetting to remove
the terminating '0' before forwarding it to HID", which we might want
to fix to avoid bug reports
- the necessity to disable ERTM to correctly pair and connect with the
device. This is currently discussed on linux-bluetooth.
