Adds DEVICE_ATTR_[RW|RO|WO]_NAMED macros for adding attributes that
reuse the same sysfs name in a driver under separate subdirectories.
When dealing with some devices it can be useful to be able to reuse
the same name for similar attributes under a different subdirectory.
For example, a single logical HID endpoint may provide a configuration
interface for multiple physical devices. In such a case it is useful to
provide symmetrical attribute names under different subdirectories on
the configuration device. The Lenovo Legion Go is one such device,
providing configuration to a detachable left controller, detachable
right controller, the wireless transmission dongle, and the MCU. It is
therefore beneficial to treat each of these as individual devices in
the driver, providing a subdirectory for each physical device in the
sysfs. As some attributes are reused by each physical device, it
provides a much cleaner interface if the same driver can reuse the same
attribute name in sysfs while uniquely distinguishing the store/show
functions in the driver, rather than repeat string portions.
Example new WO attrs:
ATTRS{left_handle/reset}=="(not readable)"
ATTRS{right_handle/reset}=="(not readable)"
ATTRS{tx_dongle/reset}=="(not readable)"
vs old WO attrs in a subdir:
ATTRS{left_handle/left_handle_reset}=="(not readable)"
ATTRS{right_handle/right_handle_reset}=="(not readable)"
ATTRS{tx_dongle/tx_dongle_reset}=="(not readable)"
or old WO attrs with no subdir:
ATTRS{left_handle_reset}=="(not readable)"
ATTRS{right_handle_reset}=="(not readable)"
ATTRS{tx_dongle_reset}=="(not readable)"
While the third option is usable, it doesn't logically break up the
physical devices and creates a device directory with over 80 attributes
once all attrs are defined.

Adds initial framework for a new HID driver, hid-lenovo-go, along with attributes that report the firmware and hardware version for each component of the HID device, of which there are 4 parts: The MCU, the transmission dongle, the left "handle" controller half, and the right "handle" controller half. Each of these devices are provided an attribute group to contain its device specific attributes. Additionally, the touchpad device attributes are logically separated from the other components in another attribute group. This driver primarily provides access to the configurable settings of the Lenovo Legion Go and Lenovo Legion Go 2 controllers running the latest firmware. As previously noted, the Legion Go controllers recently had a firmware update[1] which switched from the original "SepentiaUSB" protocol to a brand new protocol for the Go 2, primarily to ensure backwards and forwards compatibility between the Go and Go 2 devices. As part of that update the PIDs for the controllers were changed, so there is no risk of this driver attaching to controller firmware that it doesn't support.

Adds an LED multicolor class device and attribute group for controlling the RGB of the Left and right handles. In addition to the standard led_cdev attributes, additional attributes that allow for the control of the effect (monocolor, breathe, rainbow, and chroma), speed of the effect change, an enable toggle, and profile.

Adds OS Mode toggle, who's primary function is to change the built-in functional chords to use the right handle legion button instead of the left handle legion button as the mode shift key. This setting needs to be restored after resume, so a reset-resume hook is added. Reviewed-by: Mark Pearson <mpearson-lenovo@squebb.ca> Signed-off-by: Derek J. Clark <derekjohn.clark@gmail.com>
Userspace software fwupd probes some HID devices when the daemon starts up to determine the current firmware version in order to be able to offer updated firmware if the manufacturer has made it available. In order to do this fwupd will detach the existing kernel driver if one is present, send a HID command and then reattach the kernel driver. This can be problematic if the user is using the HID device at the time that fwupd probes the hardware and can cause a few frames of input to be dropped. In some cases HID drivers already have a command to look up the firmware version, and so if that is exported to userspace fwupd can discover it and avoid needing to detach the kernel driver until it's time to update the device. Introduce a new member in the struct hid_device for the version and export a new uevent variable HID_FIRMWARE_VERSION that will display the version that HID drivers obtained.

Adds initial framework for a new HID driver, hid-lenovo-go-s, along with a uevent to report the firmware version for the MCU. This driver primarily provides access to the configurable settings of the Lenovo Legion Go S controller. It will attach if the controller is in xinput or dinput mode. Non-configuration raw reports are forwarded to ensure the other endpoints continue to function as normal.

This series adds configuration driver support for the Legion Go S,
Legion Go, and Legion Go 2 built-in controller HID interfaces. This
allows for configuring hardware specific attributes such as the auto
sleep timeout, rumble intensity, etc. non-configuration reports are
forwarded to the HID subsystem to ensure no loss of functionality in
userspace. Basic gamepad functionality is provided through xpad, while
advanced features are currently only implemented in userspace daemons
such as InputPlumber1. I plan to move this functionality into the
kernel in a later patch series.
Three new device.h macros are added that solve a fairly specific
problem. Many of the attributes need to have the same name as other
attributes when they are in separate attribute subdirectories. The
previous version of this series, along with the upcoming his-asus-ally
driver2 use this macro to simplify the sysfs by removing redundancy.
An upcoming out of tree driver for the Zotac Zone 3 also found this
macro to be useful. This greatly reduces the path length and term
redundancy of file paths in the sysfs, while also allowing for cleaner
subdirectories that are grouped by functionality. Rather than carry the
same macro in four drivers, it seems beneficial to me that we include the
macro with the other device macros.
A new HID uevent property is also added, HID_FIRMWARE_VERSION, so as to
permit fwupd to read the firmware version of the Go S HID interface without
detaching the kernel driver.
Finally, there are some checkpatch warnings that will need to be suppressed:
WARNING: ENOSYS means 'invalid syscall nr' and nothing else
1292: FILE: drivers/hid/lenovo-legos-hid/lenovo-legos-hid-config.c:1085:
This error handling case was added as it is experienced in the real world
when the driver is rmmod. The LED subsystem produces this error code in
its legacy code and this is not a new novel use of -ENOSYS, we are simply
catching the case to avoid spurious errors in dmesg when the drivers are
removed.
