SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] HID: uclogic: Add support for XP-PEN Artist 22R Pro

I forgot about BTN_9, that should be an easy change. I already merged changes
upstream in systemd/udev to mark devices with these buttons correctly - so,
sunken cost and all that :-)

Yeah I think that's what I'll do, I was thinking of reusing it and just
overriding parameters if needed.

Ah okay, it's pretty specific to this device anyway - so I'll rename the
function so it's clear what it's purpose is. I wasn't sure if future XP-PEN
Pro work was going to reuse this function, but I guess we'll rename it if that
happens!

Good catch! Will change.

Currently userspace sees this as REL_WHEEL and REL_HWHEEL, but like
mentioned libinput currently rejects mouse wheel events from tablet pads.
The fact that they previously worked before these patches is because udev
misclassified the pad device as a mouse. I'm working upstream to expose dials
on tablet pads in libinput (I just got the green light so I'll be working on
that shortly!)

Ooh good point, I didn't even consider doing that. Next version will have it
split up into two then.
