The commit 4916b3a57f introduced a
hid regression between 2.6.19 and 2.6.20-rc1. The device put in
input_dev->cdev is now of type usb_device instead of usb_interface.
Before:
> # readlink -f /sys/class/input/input6/event4/device
> /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.0/usb2/2-1/2-1:1.1
After:
> # readlink -f /sys/class/input/input3/event3/device
> /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.0/usb1/1-1
This causes breakage:
> # udevinfo -q all -n /dev/input/event3
> P: /class/input/input3/event3
> N: input/event3
> S: input/by-path/pci-1-1--event-
> E: ID_SERIAL=noserial
> E: ID_PATH=pci-1-1-
No ID_MODEL, ID_VENDOR, ID_REVISION, ID_TYPE etc etc.
Fix this by assigning the intf->dev into hid->dev, and fixing
all the users.

To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources:
* This source code. This is necessarily an evolving work, and
includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview.
("make pdfdocs", and then look at "usb.pdf" for host side and
"gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.) Also, Documentation/usb has
more information.
* The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements
such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes.
The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB
peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9".
* Chip specifications for USB controllers. Examples include
host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral
controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or
cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters.
* Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral
functions. Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral
but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team.
Here is a list of what each subdirectory here is, and what is contained in
them.
core/ - This is for the core USB host code, including the
usbfs files and the hub class driver ("khubd").
host/ - This is for USB host controller drivers. This
includes UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and others that might
be used with more specialized "embedded" systems.
gadget/ - This is for USB peripheral controller drivers and
the various gadget drivers which talk to them.
Individual USB driver directories. A new driver should be added to the
first subdirectory in the list below that it fits into.
image/ - This is for still image drivers, like scanners or
digital cameras.
input/ - This is for any driver that uses the input subsystem,
like keyboard, mice, touchscreens, tablets, etc.
media/ - This is for multimedia drivers, like video cameras,
radios, and any other drivers that talk to the v4l
subsystem.
net/ - This is for network drivers.
serial/ - This is for USB to serial drivers.
storage/ - This is for USB mass-storage drivers.
class/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories, and work for a range
of USB Class specified devices.
misc/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories.
