[Nick Rosbrook]

Given Chris's opinion above, and since the patch proposed in bug 2103967
has been accepted into -proposed, we should go ahead and reject these
systemd-hwe uploads.

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

   * This patch adds hwdb entries to map mic mute keycode to F20, so
  that the key is usable in Xorg.

  [ Test Plan ]

   * On targeted unit, under Xorg, test that mic mute does not work

   * Update the package to -proposed and restart desktop, test the same
  key, the mic mute key should work to mute the microphone.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * Since the key is mapped to F20 (by convention in xkeyboard-config),
  if user redefine F20 for other purposes, it might not work as
  intended.

  [ Other Info ]

   * Do not update for plucky. In plucky, the keycode translation is
  done in xserver-xorg-input-libinput (see Bug #2103967), and wayland
  can take the micmute keycode as is.
