Re: [PATCH 1/3] hid-steam: Move hidraw input (un)registering to work

Due to an interplay between locking in the input and hid transport subsystems,
attempting to register or deregister the relevant input devices during the
hidraw open/close events can lead to a lock ordering issue. Though this
shouldn't cause a deadlock, this commit moves the input device manipulation to
deferred work to sidestep the issue.
