I'd like to defer that decision to you. However the patch you submitted
isn't really consistent; therefore it needs to be modified one way or
another anyway.

Basically the two options I am fine with, are:

- keep the USB-isms there, but put an explicit CONFIG_USB dependency into
  the Kconfig and explain in changelog of the patch why this is a good
  thing to do (like the paragraph you wrote above). If you, as a HW
  vendor, are certain that there will never ever be any device using
  non-USB transport, then this is a viable option (not nice, but I can
  understand the reasons for that)

- fall back to PID-based device identification

I will fall back to using PID to identify multi-HID interface devices.
I will be submitting a v2 patch set tomorrow.

Thanks again for your time,
Terry Junge
