Hi,
I'd like to propose this patch while removes the need for
hid to be compiled build-in, as this is the same behavior
that WiiMote and Wacom have.
Is this ok?

Makes sense to me. Could you please resend with proper changelog and
Signed-off-by: line?

Thanks.

Sorry it took more than a year for me to do this,
so I called git send-email, and so far the CC and
linux-input didn't get it, tho it said result OK.
git send-email --to "Jiri Kosina [off-list ref]" --cc
"linux-input@vger.kernel.org"
0001-HID-Allows-for-HID_BATTERY_STRENGTH-config-be-enable.patch

I'm pasting it here hoping gmail doesn't screw
it, if you prefer that I send it using the above
command mind you telling what I did wrong?

Thanks.
