Subject: [PATCH 0/2] HID special drivers converted to devres API

Hi Jiri,

It's been a long time since I told you that I was about to work on the devres API...
So here are the first patches.

My deductions are that it is safe to run devm_* functions within the hid subsystem.
With this, we can simplify a little the error path of some drivers. The gain
is more visible for hid-multitouch as the function mt_free_input_name() can
be entirely dropped.

Cheers,
Benjamin
