Battery status on Elan tablet driver is reported for the HP ENVY x360

in a battery level report of 0% or 1% depending on whether a stylus has
interacted with the screen. These low battery level reports causes a
variety of bad behavior in desktop environments. This patch adds the
appropriate quirk to indicate that the batery status is unused for this
target.

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the
stable kernel tree. Please read:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html
for how to do this properly.

Thanks Greg,
Sorry for the mix-up on my side. I read that page before I submitted
the patch but I went back and reread it. I was trying to follow "option
1" but I am guessing what I messed up was the cc in the signed-off area
rather than the cc through email?
I was looking for an example of that - I found these threads:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20130618161238.626277186@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
and this one was what I was originally modeling my submission off of:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210125183218.373193047@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
Is there an example of how I should add the cc to the sign-off area. As
I read those threads the stable list was added to the email cc? Should
I resubmit it to the linux-input with the appropriate change or follow a
different flow now that the first email went out?
If I were going to resubmit I think I would need to to like so:
...

Is that correct?
