Do not send ACPI netlink events for unknown hotkeys, to avoid userspace starting to rely on them. Instead these should be added to the keymap to send evdev events. This should not cause a behavior change for existing laptop models since all currently known 0x1xxx events have a mapping. In hindsight the ACPI netlink events should have been suppressed for the adaptive keyboard and extended hotkeys events too. But the kernel has been sending ACPI netlink events for those for a long time now, so we cannot just stop sending them without potentially causing issues for existing users who may depend on these.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
