Keyboards handled by hid-asus declare special key functions
using a vendor-specific page, however, alongside legitimate
key functions, dummy usages with seemingly arbitrary values
are also declared and can lead to keyboards being detected
as pointer devices by some software (such as X.org).
In addition, for the I2C keyboard volume controls are
separately declared in a Consumer Usage page, with the same
dummy usage problem.
The fix in 1989dada7c ("HID: input: ignore System Control
application usages if not System Controls") does not mitigate
the problem described above, therefore dummy usages need to
be ignored in the driver itself.
This fix properly ignores dummy usages and introduces a quirk
for custom handling of the Consumer Usages on the I2C keyboard.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
