This is a perfect example of a patch that should be sent upstream to
stable@kernel.org. Device ID additions have very low regression
potential (though I did manage to cause one with an ALPS ID
addition :) ). Please see Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt in the
kernel source for instructions on how to do this. Feel free to ask any
questions about the exact form of your submission, and Stefan would be a
great resource for verification as he has talked directly with gregkh
about the preferred submission format.
