Thanks for the patch. In order to get this change upstream, some small
changes are needed.
The full documentation for preparing patches for Linx is:
<https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/SubmittingPatches>.
But basically the following changes are needed:
- Include your explanation at the top
- Make the diff from the directory above the kernel source, so that the
filenames are something like:
--- linux/drivers/input/mouse/elantech.c
+++ linux.modified/drivers/input/mouse/elantech.c
Of course you can also edit the patch to make them look like that without
having two full source trees.
- Add the Developer's Certificate of Origin (section 11 of the document
linked above)
