Re: [PATCH v3 1/1] hid-asus: use hid for brightness control on keyboard

Hello,

Thanks for this patch. I'm looking at doing something similar for the Zenbook 
Duo 2024 keyboard, which, I'm discovering, is similar to the ROG_NKEY_KEYBOARD 
devices in a number of ways.

Something unique about the Zenbook Duo keyboard is that it has an external 
data-capable USB-C port, meaning it can be used as a regular USB keyboard for 
any device. This means that even if WMI features work, it is highly preferable 
to use HID alternatives where possible in order to allow those features to work 
on any Linux device that the keyboard is plugged in to.

This leads me to my question: Why the DMI check on the HID side? This is a 
little problematic for me, as it blocks functionallity on other devices. Would 
it be sufficient to use quirks only in that case? The important part, to my 
understanding, is that the WMI module disables itself properly, which is still 
covered by its own DMI check.

Are there devices that use the ROG_NKEY_KEYBOARDs where HID doesn't work?
