I tested out the patch that was announced today for the 4.4.204-stable review and
all is working well here. Thanks for addressing this.

Regards,

Bob Funk

Greg, FWIW I did nothing more than a regular backport so that you can take
it as-is. I think you dropped it from 4.4 because it did not apply well
and was not worth the hassle, but given that it fixes a regression caused
by another backport I think it makes sense to take it, at least so that
some users do not stop updating. The fix was only merged into 4.19, not
4.4/4.9/4.14.

The backports for 4.9 and 4.14 are easy to do, if you're willing to take
the patches I can do them as well, just let me know.

Let's try something like this:

For 4.14 and 4.9 I'll also grab db2582afa744 ("platform/x86:
asus-nb-wmi: Support ALS on the Zenbook UX430UQ") which makes 401fee819
apply cleanly.

For 4.4, I'll grab this long list:

92a505e8055f ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: add SERIO_I8042 dependency")
db2582afa744 ("platform/x86: asus-nb-wmi: Support ALS on the Zenbook UX430UQ") 71f38c11cdb8 ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: Set specified XUSB2PR value for X550LB") 999d4376c628 ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: fix asus ux303ub brightness issue")
a961a285b479 ("asus-wmi: Add quirk_no_rfkill_wapf4 for the Asus X456UF")
a977e59c0c67 ("asus-wmi: Create quirk for airplane_mode LED")
6b7ff2af5286 ("asus-wmi: Add quirk_no_rfkill for the Asus Z550MA")
02db9ff7af18 ("asus-wmi: Add quirk_no_rfkill for the Asus U303LB")
2d735244b798 ("asus-wmi: Add quirk_no_rfkill for the Asus N552VW")
b5643539b825 ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: Filter buggy scan codes on ASUS Q500A")
7c1c184bb571 ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: try to set als by default")
aca234f63788 ("asus-wmi: provide access to ALS control")

Which looks scary, but it's all quirks for laptops folks are actually
using with this kernel. Then 401fee819 also applies cleanly on 4.4.
