Jiri,

Yesterday (Nov 30th, 2011) I had sent a patch for the mouse driver to fix a bug
that got introduced during the recent cleanup to exit staging. This patch was against
the staging tree that Greg is planning to delete. It is a trivial patch; can you pick this up
for the hid tree. If you prefer, I could rebase the patch against your tree. Let me know.

Regards,

K. Y
