This bug is awaiting verification that the linux- nvidia-6.11/6.11.0-1004.4 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-nvidia-6.11' to 'verification-done-noble-linux-nvidia-6.11'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-nvidia-6.11' to 'verification-failed-noble-linux-nvidia-6.11'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

[ Test Plan ] I verified that this patch applies cleanly to the Oracular kernel at Ubuntu-6.11.0-9.9 and resolves the bug on my laptop (Asus ROG GA503RM). I observed no regressions. This can be verified on any similar model of laptop by testing keyboard brightness controls once patched. [ Fix ] On almost all ASUS ROG series laptops the MCU used for the USB keyboard also has a HID packet used for setting the brightness. This is usually the same as the WMI method. But in some laptops the WMI method either is missing or doesn't work, so we should default to the HID control. [ Where problems could occur ] I do not expect any regressions since this only touches parts of asus-wmi and hid-asus that are covered by my test case, which worked as intended.
