Quirk for Apple Aluminum Bluetooth keyboard FN key

This patch was present in Ubuntu Hardy, but got dropped by accident in Intrepid and never submitted upstream. It adds a quirk enabling the FN key on the Apple Aluminum Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard.

Hi Mario,

yeah, the Ubuntu kernel team is pretty bad in getting patches back to upstream. However in this case please check with the upstream kernel since the HID bus makes all quirks general to the HID subsystem.

Hi Marcel:

Yeah, that's what I was thinking should be happening, and a little bit shocked that it didn't work properly since I saw a variation of this quirk in the hid source files already. I was a little thrown off though since there is already a quirk for the mighty mouse sitting in this section that I was patching, so it seemed sensible to add the quirk for the keyboard there too. I'll try to investigate why those quirks aren't carrying over properly.

Regards
