Hi,
thanks for the driver.
I'd like to ask you to put a few more effort into this, unifying this a
little bit more with the existing driver for Lenovo devices we aready have
in the tree -- hid-lenovo-tpkbd.
As most of the drivers are divided on a per-vendor basis anyway, what I'd
probably like to see the most would be:
- drop HID_LENOVO_TPKBD (*)
- create HID_LENOVO
- rename your driver to hid-lenovo-scrollpoint
- build both hid-lenovo-tpkbd and hid-lenovo-scrollpoint when HID_LENOVO
is set
(*) or keep it for compatibility reasons, but make it just an alias for
CONFIG_HID_LENOVO.
Sounds feasible?
