When configuring input device via input_configured callback we may
encounter errors (for example input_mt_init_slots() may fail). Instead
of continuing with half-initialized input device let's allow driver
indicate failures.

The hid-uclogic.c change looks perfectly fine to me.

Thank you, Dmitri.

The next step would be to report devm_kzalloc failure instead of ignoring it.
