The Apple Magic Trackpad 2 is handled by the magicmouse driver.
And
there were severe stability issues when both drivers (hid-generic
and
hid-magicmouse) were loaded for this device.

Fixes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=210241
As mentioned in the bug, this hardly looks like the correct solution.

The magicmouse is one of the 2 only drivers that calls
`hid_register_report` and then overwrites the size of the report
manually. I can not figure out immediately if this is wrong, and how
that would impact a free in usbhid, but this is highly suspicious to
me.
Sorry for my late reply.

Now I have now found time to investigate this further, and tried to
understand what effect overwriting the size of the report could have.
Without success, I found nothing about this, which could explain a
memory corruption.

But as I commented in bug 210241 (see comment #13), usbhid_stop() is
called twice for the same hid_device instance pointer. The first call
seems to happen when the HID default driver tries to initialise this
device, which failes (probably because the hid-magicmouse driver is
already active for this device).

Adding the Magic Trackpad 2 to the hid_have_special_driver list makes
hid_generic_match() return false (in the hid-generic driver), and the
device is ignored by this driver.

Is it not the right thing to have the Magic Trackpad 2 in the
hid_have_special_driver list anyway?

Regards,
Felix

Cheers,
Benjamin
