Can you please wait a little until I post v2 later today and test v2
directly? Because the change in it's current form has no effect on
0079:0011 (the current quirk is enabled only for 0006).
When I add the input mapping in the hid-dr driver then it will affect
both 0006 and 0011 so that's the patch really worth testing.
Thanks a lot for taking time to test this,
Ionel
