Subject: [PATCH 2/7] HID: Extend the interface with wait io request

Some drivers need to wait for an io from the underlying device, creating
an unwanted dependency on the underlying transport layer. This patch adds
wait() to the interface, thereby removing usbhid from the lion share of
the drivers.
