There was nothing wrong with patch submission. If you see something
stuck please do not hesitate poking me.

A couple of questions about the patch below though:

It seems to me the logic is inverted, if there is resolution register
the new code will query it directly, otherwise it will try to get it
from the subpacket data. Is it intentional? Or did I parse it
incorrectly?

This also does not appear to be tied to the HID transport but rather
generic RMI4 code. Did I miss the connection?

Why "BIT"? Should it be called RMI_F12_RESOLUTION_REG or similar?

I am unsure what this comment means... We are in F12 code, so what does
"only" mean here?

Thanks.
