As I'm not sure if I could describe clearly what I meant to say, I try
it again: ;)
The problem that the necessary modules will not be loaded automatically
already exists in kernel 3.7. This is indepent of my proposed patches to
get rid of the vendor and device IDs and load hid-sensor-hub
automatically for all USB HID sensor hubs.
With or without my proposed patches, only hid-sensor-hub is loaded
automatically, but not the other drivers like hid-sensor-accel-3d,
hid-sensor-als, hid-sensor-gyro-3d or hid-sensor-magn-3d (if the are
build as modules).
Regards,
Alexander
