[ 36/58] HID: keep dev_rdesc unmodified and use it for comparisons

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

3.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kevin Daughtridge <kevin@xxxxxxxx>

commit 86e6b77eb7cf9ca2e9c7092b4dfd588f0a3307b6 upstream.

The dev_rdesc member of the hid_device structure is meant to store the original
report descriptor received from the device, but it is currently passed to any
report_fixup method before it is copied to the rdesc member. This patch uses a
temporary buffer to shield dev_rdesc from the side effects of many HID drivers'
report_fixup implementations.

usbhid's hid_post_reset checks the report descriptor currently returned by the
device against a descriptor that may have been modified by a driver's
report_fixup method. That leaves some devices nonfunctional after a resume, with
a "reset_resume error 1" reported. This patch checks the new descriptor against
the unmodified dev_rdesc instead and uses the original, instead of modified,
report size.
