Hi Jiri,
Thanks for applying most of the patches (2 are missing, I'll raise them
in your inbox :-P )
Regarding this one, I was wondering if we could not force it into 3.19,
or at least add a stable@ tag. I had requested this in the first
submission, and the rationale was to not change a third time the name of
the device (from "Logitech Unifying Device. Wireless PID:XXXX" to
"[TMK]XXX" to "Logitech [TMK]XXX").
Userspace would be grateful to have a reliable name.
Cheers,
Benjamin
