The Matias Wireless keyboard has an Apple like layout and identifies
as ISO RevB Alu keyboard. Use hid-apple for it so Fn key and media
control functions work as expected.

So If I understand correctly, this keyboard identifies itself with Apple 
VID, but in fact it is not.

I'd like to make sure that we don't break the real 
USB_DEVICE_ID_APPLE_ALU_REVB_ISO device produced by Apple; CCing Dan 
Bastone, who added this device ID back in 2011 (4a4c879904aa). Dan, any 
ideas please?
OK, Dan's e-mail address doesn't work any more. Let's conservatively queue 
this for 5.10, and in case there are any regression reports against stock 
Apple keyboards, we'll have to look for ways to work it around.

Yay for VID sharing :/

Thanks,
