[PATCH 4.4 099/137] Input: vmmouse - fix absolute device registration

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@xxxxxxxxx>

commit d4f1b06d685d11ebdaccf11c0db1cb3c78736862 upstream.

We should set device's capabilities first, and then register it,
otherwise various handlers already present in the kernel will not be
able to connect to the device.
