Subject: [PATCH 0/3] HID: lenovo: Improve wheel emulation

A collection of unrelated patches to improve support for the Thinkpad
compact keyboards. The first 2 are just cleanup patches.

The final patch alters the behaviour of the middle button so userspace
either gets wheel events or a button click, not both. This stops
browsers opening a link in a new tab as well as scrolling, for example.

This means you can no longer long-middle-click, but I don't think this
is likely to upset users as much as the current behaviour.

Tested against 4.1.2 with both Bluetooth and USB compact keyboards.

Cheers,

Jamie Lentin (3):
  HID: lenovo: Use constants for axes names
  HID: lenovo: Add missing return-value check
  HID: lenovo: Hide middle-button press until release
