[PATCH v3 01/10] HID: steam: Update documentation

From: Vicki Pfau <hidden>
Date: 2026-07-10 02:02:03
Subsystem: hid core layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jiri Kosina, Benjamin Tissoires, Linus Torvalds

Mark myself as the maintainer, as well as adding myself as an author.

It also makes some minor updates to comments, such as correcly calling the
left menu key view and retroactively renaming the original Steam Controller
as Steam Controller (2015), in preparation for support for the 2026 model.
