Hi Jiri,

well, I'm still not sure what to answer to address Henrik's comments. I
will work on that later in the week I think, but currently I am focusing
on hid-logitech-dj and others, which is rather time consuming.

I think Maks is fine with the current status (he still have to use a
backport due to an arm platform), so let's skip this for 3.15.

Cheers,
Benjamin
