[PATCH] HID: Add HID_CLAIMED_INPUT guards in raw_event callbacks missing them
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Feb 19 2026 - 09:37:40 EST
In commit 2ff5baa9b527 ("HID: appleir: Fix potential NULL dereference at
raw event handle"), we handle the fact that raw event callbacks
can happen even for a HID device that has not been "claimed" causing a
crash if a broken device were attempted to be connected to the system.
Fix up the remaining in-tree HID drivers that forgot to add this same
check to resolve the same issue.

This issue was found by running a tool to compare a past kernel CVE to
try to find any potential places in the existing codebase that was
missed with the original fix.
