Yep! That's definitely the same as this one. Glad to hear it still was useful
even if it's obsolete :).

I think Ping was going to work on something similar to this for the "input-
wacom" backports (since we can't rely on a fixed hid_ctrl being present) after
returning from vacation, but if you've already written it... :)

Unfortunately, when we have an Intuos Draw connected using a USB
connection, wacom's IRQ handler will be called while the lock for the
usbhid driver is held by hid_ctrl. This means when we try to schedule a
new proximity event in wacom_intuos_schedule_prox_event() by calling
hid_hw_request(), we'll try to take the lock a second time which
deadlocks the system. This patch fixes that behavior by initializing a
worker when we have a INTUOSHT2 device connected, and using that worker
to schedule the proximity event instead.
