Yes, that is the correct version.  It looks like I forgot to bump r in
the [PATCH] of the subject.

Good catch, I think.  Your comment is a bit terse, so it is difficult to
tell exactly what you are recommending.  Perhaps something like the following?

+/* Workqueue routine to send requests to change LEDs */
+static void hid_led(struct work_struct *work)
+{
+       struct usbhid_device *usbhid =
+               container_of(work, struct usbhid_device, led_work);
+       struct hid_device *hid = usbhid->hid;
+       struct hid_field *field;
+       unsigned long flags;
+
+       field = hidinput_get_led_field(hid);
+       if (!field) {
+               hid_warn(hid, "LED event field not found\n");
+               return;
+       }
+
+       spin_lock_irqsave(&usbhid->lock, flags);
+       if (!test_bit(HID_DISCONNECTED, &usbhid->iofl) &&
+           !test_bit(HID_RESET_PENDING, &usbhid->iofl)) {
+               usbhid->ledcount = hidinput_count_leds(hid);
+               hid_dbg(usbhid->hid, "New ledcount = %u\n", usbhid->ledcount);
+               __usbhid_submit_report(hid, field->report, USB_DIR_OUT);
+       }
+       spin_unlock_irqrestore(&usbhid->lock, flags);
+}
