 So, I think that the first part of the patch (setting h.report_ID to zero) is 
 not needed.  Basically, AFAICT, the effect of the patch is that 
 hid_report_size() will now return the ID of the first device of a given kind 
 rather than the last such device.  This seems to be a horrible interface 
 fwiw, and while this hack might work, I think the real fix is to adopt some 
 of the changes NetBSD made with their uhiddev.
