[RFC][PATCH] USB HID buttons quirk for Chic Technology Corp. Browser Mice

From: Darren Salt

USB HID buttons quirk for Chic Technology Corp. Browser Mice (ID 05FE:0011).

The example which I have (Advent-badged) has a wheel which can be pushed
sideways (effectively two extra buttons) and a "hot-key" button. These extra
buttons are reported as pairs of other buttons (presumably so that the mouse
can appear as an ExplorerPS/2 device when connected via PS/2). This quirk
maps this behaviour to input events for a USB-connected mouse.

Action Reported as Mapped to
------ ----------- ---------
Wheel left BTN_MIDDLE + BTN_SIDE BTN_BACK
Wheel right BTN_MIDDLE + BTN_EXTRA BTN_FORWARD
"Hot key" press BTN_RIGHT + BTN_SIDE BTN_TASK

For a mapping to be used and the appropriate key-down event to be generated,
the relevant reported buttons must be transitioned to "pressed"
simultaneously. With the mapping in use, release of any of them is enough for
the corresponding key-up event.

A suitable X configuration fragment looks something like the following. The
extra buttons appear as 8, 10 and 12 respectively.

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "USB Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "evdev"
Option "Dev Name" "Wireless Mouse Wireless Mouse"
Option "Dev Phys" "usb-*/input0"
Option "Buttons" "12"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

(Compile-tested on 2.6.15-rc2; only one trivial change required from
2.6.13/2.6.14, where it has seen actual use.)
