Public bug reported:
[Impact]
Kernel message shows this once keyboard backlight hotkey gets pressed:
[ 3285.474172] dell_wmi: Unknown key with type 0x0010 and code 0x003f pressed
It's for notification purpose, doesn't have any function.
[Fix]
Use KE_IGNORE for this type of event, so the keymap won't parse it.
[Test]
Once the patch is applied, the annoyance goes away.
[Regression Potential]
Low. This patch silence the useless message, no functional change.
