Thanks for the driver.

I actually believe we should follow the standard convention here, and have
just one hid-<vendor> driver for all google products. Currently we have
hid-google-hammer, and this would add hid-google-vivaldi. Would you (or
Wei-Ning, CCing here) object on merging these two together?

It's of course possible to still have hid-google-vivaldi.c and
hid-google-hammer.c, but then have only one CONFIG_HID_GOOGLE option
that'd link these two (and pontentially any future ones) into one single
hid-google.ko.

Thanks,
