[PATCH] HID: core: allow concurrent registration of drivers

From: Benjamin Tissoires
Date: Thu May 31 2018 - 07:49:43 EST


Detected on the Dell XPS 9365.
The laptop has 2 devices that benefit from the hid-generic auto-unbinding.
When those 2 devices are presented to the userspace, udev loads both
wacom and hid-multitouch. When this happens, the code in
__hid_bus_reprobe_drivers() is called concurrently and the second device
gets reprobed twice.
An other bug in the power_supply subsystem prevent to remove the wacom
driver if it just finished its initialization, which basically kills
the wacom node.

Fixes c17a7476e4c4 ("HID: core: rewrite the hid-generic automatic unbind")

Hi Mario,

can you please test this on your faulty XPS?
I think it'll fix the issue, but I can not reproduce, so better wait for
your confirmation.

Jiri, ideally I would love to see this in v4.17 final, but Mario seems
to be on PTO until next week. I guess we'll just push this in v4.17.1
then. Also, if you can double check that it makes sense, that would be
nice :)

Cheers,
Benjamin
