Event type 0x12 is for "System Events". This is the type of events that
you typically would see come in for things "like" the wrong power adapter
being plugged in on Windows or stuff about plugging a Thunderbolt dock into
a port that doesn't support Thunderbolt.

A message might look something like (paraphrased)
"Your system requires a 180W power adapter to charge effectively, but you
plugged in a 60W adapter."

There often is extended data with these events. As such I don't believe all
information in event type 0x0012 should be treated like scan codes like those in
0x10 or 0x11.

I would guess that Fn-lock on this machine probably has extended data in the next
showing whether it was turned on and off. If it does, perhaps it makes sense to
send this information to userspace as an evdev switch instead.
