Subject: [PATCH v2 7/7] HID: asus: do not try to initialize the backlight if the enpoint doesn't support it
Date: Sat, 28 Feb 2026 20:10:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260228191010.3830758-8-denis.benato@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260228191010.3830758-1-denis.benato@linux.dev>
Avoid possibly printing a warning about the inability to initialize the
backlight if the hid endpoint doesn't support it.
Also fix and move an incorrect check in asus_kbd_register_leds(): that
same check is now used as a precondition to call that function.
Fixes: 0919db9f3583 ("HID: asus: always fully initialize devices")
