Hi everyone,

About 3 months ago, Torge Matthies sent a patch fixing an issue with
his XP-Pen Star G640 [1].

His patch changes the IS_INPUT_APPLICATION() macro to accept
HID_DG_DIGITIZER. However, it looks like it is not being merged because
of the possible side effects that changing that macro could generate.

This patch aims to fix the same issue but using a more conservative
approach hoping that the bug can be fixed.

Torge, Alexander, could you test it and confirm that it fixes your
issues, please?

I tested the patch on commit 4bbf3422df78 and it fixes the issue.

I will add

    Tested-by: Alexander Zhang <alex@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

to the commit; please speak up if you disagree.

I'm not sure if you're still waiting for a response from me but I'm fine
with that.

Is there something preventing this patch from being merged? I'm not very
familiar with the kernel development process.

The patch is already applied in the for-next branch, you can find it here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/hid/hid.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=3405a4beaaa8

I see, thank you very much!

Best,
Alexander Zhang
