The scroll resolution multipliers are set in the context of
hidinput_connect(), which is only called at probe time: when the host
changes the value on the device with a SET_REPORT(FEATURE), and the device
accepts it, these multipliers are stored on the host side, and used to
calculate the final scroll event values sent to userspace.
After a USB suspend, the resume operation on many hubs and chipsets
involve a USB reset signal as well. A reset on the device side clears all
previous state information, including the value of the multiplier report.
This reset is not handled by the multiplier handling logic, so what ends up
happening is the host is still expecting high-resolution scroll events,
but the device is reset to default resolution, making the effective,
user-perceived scroll speed incredibly slow.
The solution is to renegotiate the multiplier selection after each reset.
This is not the only bug related to the high-resolution scrolling
implementation in the kernel (the other one is
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220144), but for this one,
there is no device side workaround for, leading to poor user experience with our product:
https://github.com/UltimateHackingKeyboard/firmware/issues/1155https://github.com/UltimateHackingKeyboard/firmware/issues/1261https://github.com/UltimateHackingKeyboard/firmware/pull/1355
This patch was tested by an affected user and has been reported to
fix the issue (see discussion in 1355).

We already have the possibility to force not binding to hid-generic and
rely on a dedicated driver, but we couldn't do the other way around.
This is useful for BPF programs where we are fixing the report descriptor
and the events, but want to avoid a specialized driver to come after BPF
which would unwind everything that is done there.

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h;
might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include
that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header.

It is not a good idea to try to fit all types of applications in the
same input report. There are a lot of devices that are needing
the quirk HID_MULTI_INPUT but this quirk doesn't match the actual HID
description as it is based on the report ID.
Given that most devices with MULTI_INPUT I can think of split nicely
the devices inputs into application, it is a good thing to split the
devices by default based on this assumption.
Also make hid-multitouch following this rule, to not have to deal
with too many input created.
While we are at it, fix some checkpatch complaints about converting
'unsigned' to 'unsigned int'.

We actually can have the unbind/rebind logic in hid-core.c, leaving
only the match function in hid-generic.
This makes hid-generic simpler and the whole logic simpler too.

Most HID devices behave properly when they are used with hid-generic.
Since kernel v4.12, we do not poll for input reports at plug in, so
hid-generic should behave properly with all HID devices.
There has been a long standing list of HID devices that have a special
driver. It used to be just a few, but with time, this list went too big,
and we can not ask users to know which HID special driver will pick up
their device.
We can teach hid-generic to be nice with others. If a device is not
explicitly marked with HID_QUIRK_HAVE_SPECIAL_DRIVER, we can allow
hid-generic to pick up the device as long as no other loaded HID driver
will match the device.
When the special driver appears, hid-generic can step back and let
the special driver handling the device. In case this special driver
is removed, this good old pal of hid-generic will rebind to the device.
This basically makes the list hid_have_special_driver[] useless. It
still allows to not see a hid-generic driver bound and removed during
boot, so we can keep it around.
This will also help other people to have a special HID driver without
the need of recompiling hid-core.

Use the new module_hid_driver macro in all HID drivers that have
a simple register/unregister init/exit.
This also converts the hid drivers that test for a failure of
hid_register_driver() and report the failure. Using module_hid_driver
in those drivers removes the failure message.

Move the hid drivers of the bus drivers to a common generic hid
driver, and make it a proper module. This ought to simplify device
handling moving forward.
