I can put it in a shared header file, however elan-i2c and hid-quirks
would need to be updated in the same change to prevent a breakage, but
that would seem to violate a concern Benjamin brought up in v4 given
that elan-i2c is maintained in your input tree, and hid-quirks is
maintained in his hid tree.

Are you ok with the elan-i2c changes going through Benjamin's hid tree?
