Subject: [PATCH] Revert "HID: logitech-hidpp: support combo keyboard touchpad TK820"

This reverts commit 3a61e97563d78a2ca10752902449570d8433ce76.

The Logitech TK820 seems to be affected by a firmware bug which
delays the sending of the keys (pressed, or released, which triggers
a key-repeat) while holding fingers on the touch sensor.
This behavior can be observed while using the mouse emulation mode
if the user moves the finger while typing (highly improbable though).
Holding the finger still while in the mouse emulation mode does
not trigger the key repeat problem.
So better keep things in their previous state to not have to
explain users that the new key-repeat bug they see is a "feature".

Furthermore, I noticed that I disabled the media keys whith
this patch. Sorry, my bad.

I think it is best to revert the patch, in all the current
versions it has been shipped.

Hi,

well, I discussed about this 2 weeks ago with Nestor. Some users were
complaining about spurious key repeats, and I was able to reproduce them
by holding a finger on the sensor while typing (which can be easily trigger
given the proximity of the sensor and the keyboard).
The new part is that:
1. the original patch killed the media keys (oops)
2. the key-repeat bug can also be triggered while in mouse mode but you need
   to semd events from the touchpad while typing to get it.

In all cases, the patch is broken in its current state, and instead of asking
users to use the parameter disable_raw_mode=1, lets just disable the raw support
of the keyboard/touchpad for now.

Cheers,
Benjamin
