Subject: [PATCH v2] HID: rmi: Scan the report descriptor to determine if the device is suitable for the hid-rmi driver

On composite HID devices there may be multiple HID devices on separate interfaces, but hid-rmi
should only bind to the touchpad. The previous version simply checked that the interface protocol
was set to mouse. Unfortuately, it is not always the case that the touchpad has the mouse interface
protocol set. This patch takes a different approach and scans the report descriptor looking for
the Generic Desktop Pointer usage and the Vendor Specific Top Level Collection needed by the
hid-rmi driver to interface with the device.

This is a second attempt at the patch I submitted back in October. Instead of looking for specific
HID reports this patch looks for the Generic Desktop Pointer usage. Having that usage along with
the vendor specific collection seems to be a distinctive enough to id the Synaptics touchpad in
the composite USB device.
