Hi Clement,

I have a series I sent last September that allows to support non DJ
devices on logitech-hidpp
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-input/list/?series=16359).

In its current form, with the latest upstream kernel, the series will
oops during the .event() callback, which is easy enough to fix.
However, I am currently trying to make it better as a second or third
reading made me realized that there was a bunch of non-sense in it and
a proper support would require slightly more work for the non unifying
receiver case.

I hope I'll be able to send out something by the end of the week.

Cheers,
Benjamin
