Thank you for your patch-series.

Note there is one special corner-case which you missed wrt the
dynamic creation of the device on receiving 0xcc/0xcd events
(so patch 2/2). I've prepared a follow-up patch fixing this,
which I will post right after sending this email. The commit
msg of that patch gives more details.

I've applied the series to my review-hans branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans

Note it will show up in my review-hans branch once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be
added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually
will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next
merge-window.

Regards,

Hans
