Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Add a skeleton module to perform a basic initialization on certain USB devices
Date: Sat, 23 Jan 2016 11:35:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1453545311-5721-1-git-send-email-madcatxster@devoid-pointer.net> (raw)

This mini series adds a simple skeleton module whose only purpose is to bring
devices that at first appear as a generic USB device into another mode that
can be handled by a more specific subsystem.

This patch was originally requested by Dmitry, reasoning that loading the
entire xpad module just to switch a Logitech G920 wheel into HID mode is
excessive and does not make much sense.

The module can be extended to handle any other USB device that might require
such a switch.

Michal Malý (2):
  Add usb_skelswitch skeleton module to do basic initialization of
    devices that     at first appear as a generic USB device.
  Use usb_skelswitch module to switch Logitech G920 Racing Wheel to HID 
       mode.
