[PATCH] hid: core: add managed version of hid_hw_start

From: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com>
Date: 2016-01-06 14:37:49
Subsystem: hid core layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jiri Kosina, Benjamin Tissoires, Linus Torvalds

Most calls to hid_hw_stop are boilerplate code. The function comment
states: "This is usually called from remove function or from probe
when something failed and hid_hw_start was called already."

A managed version of hid_hw_start allows to avoid this boilerplate
code in most cases (similar to the other devm_ functions). 
hid_hw_stop is called automatically before the device is deleted.
