[PATCH 0/1] Input: xpad - Add a variation of Mad Catz Beat Pad

Hello all,

I have a dance pad that has the vendor and product IDs of a Mad Catz
Beat Pad (0738:4540), but it doesn't get handled by xpad.ko because xpad
expects (a) interface class and subclass of 'X':'B', or (b) interface
class 255, subclass 93, protocol 1 or 129; while my device identifies as
interface class 3 (HID), subclass 0, protocol 0. As a result, usbhid
grabs it and it sort of works, but the diagonal pads are not mapped.

When I add a usbhid option quirks=0x0738:0x4540:0x4 (so that usbhid does
not attempt to handle this device) and rebuild the xpad module with the
following patch, the device works as expected. Dmitry Torokhov, the
current maintainer of input drivers, suggested that I include a change
to add the usbhid quirk in my patch.
