The nice apple alu keyboards with numpads are pretty much unusable in

Hitting the 'clear' key (=numlock) disables the numpad, and maps multiple
alphanumeric keys to numpad symbols in typical laptopkeyboard fashion.
This conflicts rather directly with hid-disable-numlock-emulation-for-apple-aluminium-keyboards.patch below (hm, seems we didn't get a changelog for that one).

Hi,

I have just today applied Diego's patch into my tree [1], he has provided the changelog out of list to me.

Jiri, what should we do here?

Dag, I think Diego's patch should solve the issue you are seeing, right?

[1] http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jikos/hid.git;a=commit;h=ffe6f7b799e33f51732520979f9c253a252b9d5e

I'll give it a shot and let you know.
