Hi Chris.

Make asus-wmi notify on hotkey kbd brightness changes, listen for

For this purpose, bound check on brightness in kbd_led_set must be
based on the same data type to prevent illegal value been set.

Update the brightness by led_classdev_notify_brightness_hw_changed.
This will allow userspace to monitor (poll) for brightness changes
on the LED without reporting via input keymapping.

Is this really a case of the hardware itself processing the
keypress and then changing the brightness *itself* ?

From the "[PATCH 2/2] platform/x86: asus-wmi: Add keyboard backlight
toggle support" patch I get the impression that the driver is
modifying the brightness from within the kernel rather then the
keyboard controller are ACPI embeddec-controller doing it itself.

If that is the case then the right fix is for the driver to stop
mucking with the brighness itself, it should simply report the
right keyboard events and export a led interface and then userspace
will do the right thing (and be able to offer flexible policies
to the user).

Regards,

Hans
