I'd say we need a different fix here. First, the question is whether there
are any force-feedback devices, supported by USBHID force-feedback layer,
which have a bluetooth version?

If there are none of them, we could just drop the FF initialization
completely for now.

On the other hand if there are such devices, just calling hid_ff_init() is
presently not enough anyway, as the force feedback drivers for HID devices
are currently USB-transport specific.
