For the record, the patch that Willy offered does fix the issue on my affected system. That might be a better choice than my request to revert as per the original email.
Greg, FWIW I did nothing more than a regular backport so that you can take it as-is. I think you dropped it from 4.4 because it did not apply well and was not worth the hassle, but given that it fixes a regression caused by another backport I think it makes sense to take it, at least so that some users do not stop updating. The fix was only merged into 4.19, not 4.4/4.9/4.14.
The backports for 4.9 and 4.14 are easy to do, if you're willing to take the patches I can do them as well, just let me know.
Let's try something like this:
For 4.14 and 4.9 I'll also grab db2582afa744 ("platform/x86: asus-nb-wmi: Support ALS on the Zenbook UX430UQ") which makes 401fee819 apply cleanly.
For 4.4, I'll grab this long list:
92a505e8055f ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: add SERIO_I8042 dependency") db2582afa744 ("platform/x86: asus-nb-wmi: Support ALS on the Zenbook UX430UQ") 71f38c11cdb8 ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: Set specified XUSB2PR value for X550LB") 999d4376c628 ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: fix asus ux303ub brightness issue") a961a285b479 ("asus-wmi: Add quirk_no_rfkill_wapf4 for the Asus X456UF") a977e59c0c67 ("asus-wmi: Create quirk for airplane_mode LED") 6b7ff2af5286 ("asus-wmi: Add quirk_no_rfkill for the Asus Z550MA") 02db9ff7af18 ("asus-wmi: Add quirk_no_rfkill for the Asus U303LB") 2d735244b798 ("asus-wmi: Add quirk_no_rfkill for the Asus N552VW") b5643539b825 ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: Filter buggy scan codes on ASUS Q500A") 7c1c184bb571 ("platform/x86: asus-wmi: try to set als by default") aca234f63788 ("asus-wmi: provide access to ALS control")
Which looks scary, but it's all quirks for laptops folks are actually using with this kernel. Then 401fee819 also applies cleanly on 4.4.
