Subject: [PATCH 3.12 68/83] HID: hid-elo: some systems cannot stomach work around

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@...e.de>

commit 403cfb53fb450d53751fdc7ee0cd6652419612cf upstream.

Some systems although they have firmware class 'M', which usually
needs a work around to not crash, must not be subjected to the
work around because the work around crashes them. They cannot be
told apart by their own device descriptor, but as they are part
of compound devices, can be identified by looking at their siblings.
