From: Chase Douglas <chase.douglas@ubuntu.com>

The driver listens only for raw events from the device. If we allow
the hidinput layer to initialize, we can hit NULL pointer dereferences
in the hidinput layer because disconnecting only removes the hidinput
devices from the hid device while leaving the hid fields configured.

Note that this mimics what the hid-picolcd module does.
