Turns out one way to find some folks to help me test this code is to
break them. Maybe not a good way, but a way. :(

There should have been a:

ihid_acpi->client = client;

...here. If you're willing to look at Chrome OS gerrit pages, you can
find the fix at <https://crrev.com/c/2527946>.

If everything about this patch looks good, I'm OK w/ a maintainer
fixing this when applying. I'm also happy to send out a v6, but I'll
wait a little bit in case there are other comments.
