[PATCH] HID: removing obsolete kone_abi_version sysfs attr forroccat kone

[Stefan Achatz]

The newest version of the accompanying userland tools cuts backward
compatibility and uses libudev to find its devices superseding the
quirky kone_abi_version sysfs attribute. Therefore it should be removed.
