[PATCH v2 3/6] hid: Create a generic device group

From: Henrik Rydberg
Date: Sun Apr 22 2012 - 02:03:54 EST


Devices that do not have a special driver are handled by the generic
driver. This patch does the same thing using device groups; Instead of
forcing a particular driver, the appropriate driver is picked up by
udev. As a consequence, one can now move a device from generic to
specific handling by a simple rebind. By adding a new device id to the
generic driver, the same thing can be done in reverse.
