Having noticed that Linus hasn't pulled this yet ... Rusty, you can safely 
drop this one. I am currently preparing pull request for HID, which will 
remove the whole hid-dummy stuff altogether, so all this will be removed 
anyway (this is what Stephen has his extra patch in linux-next).

So if you drop this before Linus pulls, it will save us one conflict.

Thanks,
