You're welcome.

I'm glad you get it now :)

So you want to add this to all 14 commit messages ?

Interesting yes that looks good, any idea why this was not done
in commit 91cf9a98ae41 ("HID: logitech-hidpp: make .probe usbhid capable")
right away ?

Let me rework the series to use that tomorrow. This will probably also
allow dropping a bunch of the patches.
