[PATCH] usbtouchscreen: fix eGalax/ETTI HID device ignoring

Fix the eGalax/ETTI HID device ignoring by adding a match for the protocol too.
This is what the marco USB_DEVICE_HID_CLASS() was supposed to do anyways.

Devices confirmed to be real HID have the class set to HID and the protocol
set to 'mouse'.  Some have HID class but protocol set to 'none'. Those are
not HID and should be driven by usbtouchscreen.
