[PATCH 4/5] HID: autoload hid-multitouch as needed

From: benjamin.tissoires
Date: Tue Mar 06 2012 - 11:57:43 EST


From: Benjamin Tissoires <benjamin.tissoires@xxxxxxx>

The code is inspired from the one present in the bttv module.

As I mentioned in the mail 0/5, I'd really like to have your opinion on this
one. I copied the code from bttv, but it forces us to change hid_device which
is not very good for ABI changes reasons.

Thanks,
Benjamin
