Hi Henrik,

is the mouse not working at all with standard HID driver?

I'd prefer to postpone merging this patch until bcm5974 hits mainline if 
the device works in a limited way with standard HID driver, so that we 
don't introduce regression.

If the device doesn't work with HID driver at all though, it is probably 
perfectly fine to merge it right away. Please let me know, I have no 
knowledge about this particular device.

Thanks a lot,
