Typo in Keybaord here.

Thank you for your patch. I really appreciate your continued
efforts to make Asus laptops work well with Linux.

For keyboard backlight support Linux has standardized on
using the /sys/class/leds API. So I'm afraid that this patch
will need to be rewritten to use the standard LED API
and then specifically the somewhat new multicolor LED API
at least for setting the RGB values (within the current mode)

Any extra functionality can then be added as extra sysfs
attributes under the /sys/class/leds/asus::kbd_backlight
device, see e.g. the use of kbd_led_groups in:
drivers/platform/x86/dell/dell-laptop.c

Note the kbd_backlight part of the name is important this
will allow upower to recognize this as a keyboard backlight
and will then enable desktop-environments which use
upower for kbd backlight control to at least control
the overall brightness of the kbd-backlight.

I realize that this means that you need to redo a whole
bunch of work here; and I presume also in your
asusctl userspace utility, sorry about that. But it
really is important that standard userspace APIs are
used for things like this where ever possible.

Regards,

Hans
