yes, and no. A thorough review can help detect these while it's a pain
to ask each and every users to test every possible device :)

I like the flag. It will remove the dependency to usb in raw_event()
which is always a plus.

Speaking of which. I started looking at these dependencies in the hid
subtree (like every year, in spring, these dependencies itches me).
I think we can find a preventive solution which would allow to reinject
through uhid any device even if the driver wants to talk to the usb
layer. This will require some more effort on my side but will allow us
to have at least some regressions tests in hid-uclogic too.

Cheers,
Benjamin
