Ou, sorry I have missed this checks for ec[0] == 0x88.

Marcos, so conclusion is that all those ALPS devices are already
supported by last mainline kernel. So you can close those bug reports.
If you need with git blame you can identify commit in which was support
added and then you can find in which kernel version was particular
commit first time.
