[PATCH 0/1] HID: Report Descriptor in Sysfs

[Alan Ott <alan@signal11.us>]

So I'd like to have access to the HID report descriptor in a sysfs entry, so
I can read it without opening the device.  hid-core seemed like the place to
put it.

Using the /sys/class links, for hidraw devices, this puts a new file,
report_descriptor in the directory:
	/sys/class/hidraw/hidraw0/device/

For my USB device (for example), the new file is in:
	/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-5.3:1.0/0003:046D:C216.0001/

For my Bluetooth device, the new file is in:
	/sys/class/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:11/0005:054C:0268.0002/

I'm not super confident that these file locations are the best place, but I
made a best guess so that it could be discussed.  The current location is
where the hid-core stuff lives.  Is there a reason these directories are
named bus:vendor:product:id (instead of hid-core or something similar)?  Is
there a better way to do this?

Alan.
