Hello, I'm looking at dell-wmi.c driver and its history in git and I found problem with handling WMI key code 0xe045. In current dell-wmi.c code is
{KE_KEY, 0xe045, KEY_PROG1},
{KE_IGNORE, 0xe045, KEY_NUMLOCK},
I bet this is some copy-paste error as one code can be translated only
to one input key event.
In git history I found that above change was added by commit:

Sending email to all signers of this commit. Problematic code is still
in upstream kernel, so it needs to be fixed.
Mario Limonciello: Do you know if code 0xe045 is some PROG1 or NUMLOCK?
