Good to hear. Will you submit the fix patch for the merge, or shall I
do it in my side?

> Looking at the Arch bug report at https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/70636, it's likely similar behaviour may be needed for pid=0009 (LH Labs Geek Pulse X 1V5) but I have no way of testing this. Added the reporter in CC.

It's likely OK to apply the same quirk, but it's certainly safer to
hear the test result, of course.
