Hi Henrik,

Few words about usbhid_submit_report() usage, which seems to be wrong:

I thought so, but I can't find anything suitable. There are functions in usbhid to work with leds and nothing else.
On the other hand - Linux Cross Referencer reports heavy usage of usbhid_submit_report() in hid drivers.

With best regards,
Anton
