ROG means ASUS "Republic of Gamers" laptops. The input device info
also represents itself as "ASASTeK COMPUTER INC. ROG MacroKey". It
uses special HID_USAGE code for function keys. This commit remap the
special code to standard keycode for function keys handling. It's
verified on GL553VD/VE, GL753VD/VE.

Hi Chris,

there is no real point of having a separate driver from hid-asus. The
HID tree prefer to group drivers by vendors, so these keyboards should
be supported through hid-asus.
Thanks for the feedback. We will submit a new version soon.

Just to confirm, hid-asus currently depends on I2C_HID. The new
devices being quirked now are USB devices. With this patch should we
now update it to depend on I2C_HID && USB_HID?

Daniel
