[PATCH 1/3] HID: Export hid_register_field

From: Benjamin Tissoires <hidden>
Date: 2010-03-08 21:29:49
Subsystem: hid core layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jiri Kosina, Benjamin Tissoires, Linus Torvalds

The Apple Magic Mouse (and probably other devices) publish reports that are not
called out in their HID report descriptors -- they only send them when enabled
through other writes to the devices. Exporting hid_register_report is not
sufficient as the given report is empty.

As the hid parser does not know the new fields, the driver has to register them
manually. This allows the driver to manually register the different fields.
