Actually I have one problem here. Autoloading. I don't have any idea how to solve it. To solve it backward compatible with older userspace (if I would change module-init-tools). I'm thinking only about a default-y option which inhibits these drivers as a module for some time until the change gfets propagated (and user decides he no longer needs it). Modules are supposed to have MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(hid, table) (which has another minor issue with different buses). This won't load any module, since depmod et al. don't know this device table so far. Any ideas, please?
