I can observe the same issue on several Dell systems with Linux kernel
v4.4. I didn't test older kernel though.
It should be handled by the kernel instead of udevd's hwdb.
Does !wlan in hwdb necessary to make the wireless hotkey to work?
Anyway this is not the correct solution, the "!" is to send a release key for
buggy keyboard, but 0xe008 we see here is just a "notification" instead of a
real key press.
