Subject: [PATCH v6 4/7] HID: asus: listen to the asus-wmi brightness device instead of creating one
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2025 22:15:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251013201535.6737-5-lkml@antheas.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251013201535.6737-1-lkml@antheas.dev>
Some ROG laptops expose multiple interfaces for controlling the
keyboard/RGB brightness. This creates a name conflict under
asus::kbd_brightness, where the second device ends up being
named asus::kbd_brightness_1 and they are both broken.
Therefore, register a listener to the asus-wmi brightness device
instead of creating a new one.
