These patches were developed with the help of an AI coding assistant (Claude Opus 5.5): it reviewed the drivers, found the issues and drafted the fixes and changelogs. I reviewed every change and I am responsible for them. All patches build cleanly with W=1. Tested on a Dell Precision M4800 running v7.2.15, using the equivalent backports built as out-of-tree modules: - writing 4424214d / 18989323d to stop_timeout set 4m / 2m before patch 1 and is rejected with -EINVAL after it; 5m still works - charge_control_end_threshold rejects -1 and 101, accepts 85 The kbd_get_state() failure path of patch 2 was not triggered.
