Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] platform/x86: dell-wmi: new keys

As per discussion backlight events are passed on as they are
filtered by acpi-video.

Events of type 0x0012 have extended data in the rest of the
buffer, this data is currently ignored.

The Fn lock key currently is ignored. If userspace has a way
to deal with this a function to pass on the extended data
can be added.

messages of type:

    firmware scancode 0xXX maps to unrecognized keycode 0xXXXX

are from unknown keycodes in the DMI table and should be added
to bios_to_linux_keycode to allow them to be processed.

Y Paritcher (3):
  platform/x86: dell-wmi: add new backlight events
  platform/x86: dell-wmi: add new keymap type 0x0012
  platform/x86: dell-wmi: add new dmi keys to bios_to_linux_keycode
