These are four fixes on top of the v5 series, posted 2026-09-03: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/20260903073602.3815258-1-aer@tuxedocomputers.com/ Tested on an Acer Predator PT14-52T, which has two LampArray devices: a USB keyboard (05AF:767A) and an I2C ENE controller (0CF2:5130). With v5 as posted, the keyboard does not probe. LampCount reads back 0, and once that is fixed the level counts read back 0 as well, which divides by zero in led_mc_calc_color_components() during probe and takes the USB hub worker down with it. Patches 1 and 2 cover the reads and the validation; this is the same problem Aaron and Werner discussed in this thread, with a backtrace from hardware that hits it. Patch 3 makes use_leds_uapi transfer control in both directions. Autonomous mode is currently only set at probe, so writing 1 re-registers the LED class device without taking the hardware back, and updates sent afterwards are ignored. Patch 4 blanks the lamps across suspend. On this machine, the lighting accounts for 9.21W of the 12.35W s2idle power draw against 3.14W with the lamps blanked from this driver, so this is most of the suspend power on a laptop with RGB. This was also tested with one of the 2 lights on the ENE controller still on; this patch does not control both zones. Please treat these as input for v6 rather than a separate series; squashing them in is fine by me, and I will rebase and retest against v6 when it arrives. Two things I have not fixed: - The ENE controller exposes two LampArrayAttributesReport collections. lamparray_parse_update_report() has no first-match guard, so the second overwrites the first and only one zone is claimed; the other stays in firmware control. This is the multi-zone question from Werner's reply. I really believe that multi-zone support should exist, but I have not included it because I haven't started it; uni is taking away a lot of my time currently. - hid_device_io_start() in lamparray_register() may no longer be needed: hid_hw_raw_request() is synchronous and does not go through hid_input_report(), so it does not need driver_input_lock released. That would also address the second [High] item from the Sashiko review.

Thanks for your patches! I have reviewed and tested them and the only thing I noticed is that wrapping the resume/suspend methods with pm_ptr is missing in the final patch. Otherwise everything LGTM. I will follow up with v6 soon, adding you with "Co-developed-by" on the relevant commits.

Ack. I think this is better suited for a separate patch series, unless it is trivial to add. > > - hid_device_io_start() in lamparray_register() may no longer be needed: > hid_hw_raw_request() is synchronous and does not go through > hid_input_report(), so it does not need driver_input_lock released. > That would also address the second [High] item from the Sashiko review.
