The hid-generic driver now checks for LampArray support after hid_parse() and optionally registers a lamparray instance. Failures in the helper do not abort device probe to keep the device unchanged. LampArray resources are released on driver remove. This patch was successfully tested on the Microsoft MacroPad reference implementation (https://github.com/microsoft/RP2040MacropadHidSample 1d6c3ad) and in combination with the tuxedo_nb04_wmi driver, albeit only functional with a recent fix posted to the LKML.
