Below is a shortlog what is currently brewing in HID tree for 2.6.28. The 
most notable change is a conversion of the whole HID core code into bus, 
and conversion of all the quirks to specialized separate drivers. Over 
years, the quirks have been added in order to support broken devices all 
over the code, and turned it into total unmaintainable mess. The HID bus 
provides easy means for drivers for quirky devices to use as much of the 
common code as possible, and really implement only the quirky part.

Besides that, handling of some new devices has been added, plus some other 
random easy fixes.
