SRU justification:

Impact: The appleir driver does not work with the most recent MacBook
Pro because the device now has a new ID 0x8242.

Fix: Add new device ID in appleir_ids[]. Also add in appropriate key
response codes for this device.

Testcase: Without the patch, appleir driver on newer MacBook Pros do not
detect this device. With the patch, the device is detected.

Patch tested and confirmed by user:
