    HID: core: fix reporting of raw events

Reverting this commit in v3.12-rc2 prevents the system from locking up, 
which happens when connecting a bluetooth trackpad.

Jiri, do you think we should revert this patch, or is there some further 
debugging/data collecting you would like to do?

Hi Joseph,

in this mail:

you said that reverting this commit doesn't prevent the lockups, so I am 
rather confused ... ?

Thanks,
