This patch enables the 6th button on the ELECOM EX-G M-XT4DRBK trackball mouse. This is a left handed EX-G variant which only comes in a wireless (D) model. It has a total of 6 buttons but one of these is not available because of how the HID descriptor is configured. Signed-off-by: Tomasz Kramkowski <tk@xxxxxxxxxx> --- This patch depends on patch 1 in this series. This was requested on the list [1] and on reddit [2]. There's no "Requested-by:" field but the requesters might qualify for a "Suggested-by:". I've notified both in case they qualify and would like their names to be included.
Hardly necessary for something so minor.
I do not have the hardware to test this patch but I have been informed that an equivalent change was tested and worked. I have asked both requesters for their help testing the patch which means that they might be able to vouch for its functionality. However, it's unlikely for there to be a problem.

My colleague with those mice has tested a patched kernel and appears happy. I eventually got him to look at the Reddit list and he believes it's OK.
I'm dropping off-list for the moment but this email address will remain active.
