Tested on Surface Pro 2 Type Cover 2 on kernel 3.15/multitouch rebased on 3.14. The device is now handled by hid-generic and hid-sensor-hub as expected. There is a newer UEFI and touch cover firmware that I have not tried, as you need windows update to get drivers for this device. I will try and update my device to make sure we don't need any quirks.
