Hi Johan,

can you please fix your process to also include the linux-input ML and
myself to HID related patches?

It doesn't matter for this one, as I see it in the HID tree, but I
wasn't aware of it nor the other one ("HID: core: increase HID report
buffer size to 8KiB"). And I like being aware of HID patches :)

The main reason is that whenever a patch hit linux-input, I run a
series of test with https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/hid-tools,
and the 2 fixes you sent are some very strong candidates for
regression tests.

Can you send me your report descriptors with the `hid-recorder` tool
in the hid-tools project, and I'll add your device in the test suite?

Cheers,
Benjamin
