Re: HID bus

Hmm, I must admit, I didn't know how exactly autoloading works. On suse,
at least, module aliases are used. So autoloading works for me after this
patch and slight modifications of the previous patches. The pro of this
is that it's in-kernel modification of modpost phase.

Now, I wonder for exactly what purpose are module.*map files in
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/ dir, i.e. what would break, if the devices won't
be listed there on systems with unpatched module-init-tools.

Generate aliases for usb hid device modules to support autoloading.
