Hi Henrik,
first, thanks for the review of the series.

thanks for that. Will change it in v2.

Well, the idea is to remove blank hidinput from the hid device, keeping
the populated ones. Thus, the argument "struct hid_input *".
In many cases, blanks hidinput and populated ones are set on the same
hid device:
Let's take a win7 device. hid-mt will populate the multitouch report,
discarding the mouse emulation report. Thus, we need to only remove the
hidinput created from the mouse emulation report, keeping the multitouch
one.
Does that makes sense?

Not sure I understand your point here.
The hid spec says that reports are independent. Thus, you can have
several devices presenting different semantic (absolute, relative,
touch, pen, 3d, gyros, etc...) within the same hid interface. If you
activate both the quirks NO_EMPTY_INPUT and MULTI_INPUT, you have this
behavior correctly handled as per the spec IMO.
The thing is that it was not the default before. For instance,
hid-magicmouse for magic trackpads use the hid-input core functionality
to create its input device, but it does not populate it: input_mapping()
returns -1. The declaration of the axes is done later, once the
hid_hw_start() has returned.
Besides the fact that there may be a race with udev checking for the
device and assigning it to the touchpad class, the input is not
populated here (no matter the MULTI_INPUT quirk in place or not).
Thus, the need to specifically introduce this quirk.
So I would say that if the driver is using NO_EMPTY_INPUT, then it's its
responsability to check that its inputs are correctly configured (which
I do in hid-multitouch).
Cheers,
Benjamin
