Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/3] Add support for more dell-wmi hotkeys

This is the version I'm planning on applying - look ok? I've skipped the 
OSD stuff, since right now we're not going to do anything terribly 
useful with them. I'd prefer some consensus on where we're going with 
these notifications.

    dell-wmi: Add additional keyboard events
    
    Upcoming Dell hardware will send more keyboard events via WMI. Add support
    for them.
