Ok, I think I understood: nothing related to Henrik's changes. The bug
is also present in the upstream kernel.
In the function set_last_slot_field, I was doing a:
test_bit(usage->hid, hi->input->absbit);

for instance, 0x10030 (X hid field) in the absbit bit field which
contains only ABS_CNT (0x40) bits.... That's why it was a random bug.
Now I understood why Ubuntu complained about this test ;-)

I won't have the time to submit the patch right now, I have to give a
lecture this afternoon. Maybe this evening or tomorrow.

Cheers,
Benjamin
