[GIT PULL] platform-drivers-x86 for 5.9-3
From: Hans de Goede

Hi Linus,
First of all sorry for this second last-minute pdx86 pull-req.
The main reason for the first pull-req was fixing 2 regressions
in 5.8 with Tablet Mode reporting seen on various laptop models
which has been reported by a lot of users, because this
regression causes the (builtin) keyboard and touchpad to not
work on these laptops.
These regressions were caused by the asus-nb-wmi and the
intel-vbtn drivers both receiving recent patches to start
reporting Tablet Mode / to report it on more models.
Due to a miscommunication between Andy and me, Andy's
earlier pull-req only contained the fix for the intel-vbtn
driver and not the fix for the asus-nb-wmi code.
This pull-req contains a single patch fixing the asus-nb-wmi
code. This patch has been in use (as a downstream fix) in
Fedora's kernels for 2 weeks now without issues.
Regards,
Hans
