Using this kernel I tested several Logitech mice - an MX Master 3, which 
already supported hi-res scrolling in Linux; an M310 and an M185, which have 
features but no feature for hi-res scrolling; and an old-style M510, which 
does not have features.  I used evtest to show the events that were 
generated.   For these mice the patch does not produce any change in events 
generated, as expected, both REL_WHEEL and REL_WHEEL_HI_RES events.
