PATCH 1/1 input: pxrc - do not store USB device in private struct

The USB device is only needed during setup, so put it back after initialization and do not store it in our private struct.

Also, the USB device is a parent of USB interface so our driver model rules ensure that USB device should not disappear while interface device is still there.
So not keep a refcount on the device is safe.

There is really no need to "get" device for the probe duration, or in general, when you are not storing the reference to it.

I posted series with an updated version of this patch plus couple more cleanups/fixes, and would appreciate if you could give it a spin.

Thanks.

Thank you for doing this.

I have reviewed the patchset and tested on real hardware, and it looks good to me.

For what it's worth:

On the whole patchset.
