[PATCH v3 1/3] HID: asus: export asus_hid_fnlock_set() for direct fn-lock control
From: Marcus Grenängen
Date: Thu May 07 2026 - 05:34:24 EST
Some ASUS platforms cannot control fn-lock via WMI DEVS and must send a
HID feature report directly to the N-Key keyboard device instead.
Add a module-level fnlock_hdev pointer (protected by a mutex) that is set
at probe time for devices with QUIRK_HID_FN_LOCK and cleared at remove.
Export asus_hid_fnlock_set(bool) so that asus-armoury can call into
hid-asus without a circular dependency.
