You are missing Reported-by: Mark Brown <broonie@xxxxxxxxxx> to give
credits where it's due and also a link to the report:
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZnQ03jc-xEWam2cR@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

The subject formatting is also wrong.

That's weird. That file shouldn't be touched from us (on the HID side)
without the ack from Hans or the platform x86 people.

And bda38f9a41 ("HID: asus: use hid for brightness...) doesn't have such
an ack.

This got me realize that the initial patch was incorrectly taken through
the hid tree:

in [1] Hans explicitely asked to take the patch through his tree.

So I'm going to drop your patch from the HID tree and ask you to
resubmit the entire patch as a v3 to the platform guys.

Cheers,
Benjamin
