Quirks cleanup and hid-generic niceness

From: Benjamin Tissoires <[email protected]>

Hi,

This is the series I was talking about earlier[1].

Basically, Jiri, I'd like to see 1-3 applied in for-next at your earliest convenience, and we can discuss about 4/4 without any rush.

I have this in my local tree since June, but I made some late minute changes before sending, though the tests showed they are fine (I wouldn't mind a second pair of eyes on it).

I am pretty sure we can optimize the things more, but for now this should be just fine and just convert the quirks mechanism in hid-core.
For instance, there is a second call of hid_lookup_quirk() in usbhid/hid-core.c that I am not sure about the absolute need.

Niels, please have a look at this and tell me if you are OK to rebase your series on top of it.

Cheers,
Benjamin
