I guess with this we can remove the blacklist we have for forcepads in drivers/input/mouse/synaptics.c?
[Marge 07/14]
The current version's detection method does not support the F21 design from 12 years ago.
I will discuss with the Synaptics firmware team member how to add support, and it will be implemented in a future release.

I do not see definition for this anywhere in the patch.

I will remove it in next patch.

Use BIT(0) here please.
[Marge 07/14]
I will use BIT(0) in next patch.

Why such a big difference in F21 data size between HID and other transports?
[Marge 07/14]
F21 Data Structure:
Data size = (number of Forcepad sensors) × 2 bytes (Currently there are 4 Forcepad sensors)
+ 1 byte for the Forcepad button state
+ (5 fingers × 2 bytes) for finger pressure values (Supports five fingers, each finger's pressure value occupies two bytes)
HID Attention: 6 bytes
The pressure values for the five fingers are each represented by one byte, so that's five bytes total, plus one byte for the Forcepad button state.
I will discuss with the Synaptics firmware team member how to add support by representing it through a lookup table.
Update it in next patch

I do not think you need to do the copy, you can test the bit directly in
drvdata->attn_data.data buffer.
[Marge 07/14]
I will use drvdata->attn_data.data buffer directly in next patch.

No need to double negation here, converting to bool will do the right thing.
[Marge 07/14]
I will correct it in next patch.

Same here.

Is this actually possible for f21 to be NULL here?

This variable is not needed.

Drop extra parenthesis.
