[BCCed Greg and the stable list, as this is apparently a mainline

Thx or the report.

FWIW, that's a change from Hans. He is normally quite responsive, but as

P.S.: To be sure the issue doesn't fall through the cracks unnoticed,
I'm adding it to regzbot, the Linux kernel regression tracking bot:

#regzbot report /
#regzbot introduced aa69d6974185e9f7a552ba982540a38e34f69690
#regzbot title HID: i2c-hid: probe of i2c-XXX0001:00 failed with error -110
#regzbot ignore-activity
