[PATCH 1/1 v2] HID: don't grab devices with no input

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Thu Nov 13 2008 - 17:10:38 EST


Some devices have no input interrupt endpoint. These won't be handled
by usbhid, but currently they are not refused and reside on hid bus.

Perform this checking earlier so that we refuse to control such
a device early enough (and not pass it to the hid bus at all).
