commit 2e210bbb7429cdcf1a1a3ad00c1bf98bd9bf2452 upstream.

The commit 581c4484769e ("HID: input: map digitizer battery usage")
assumed that devices having input (qas opposed to feature) report for
battery strength would report the data on their own, without the need to
be polled by the kernel; unfortunately it is not so. Many wireless mice
do not send unsolicited reports with battery strength data and have to
be polled explicitly. As a complication, stylus devices on digitizers
are not normally connected to the base and thus can not be polled - the
base can only determine battery strength in the stylus when it is in
proximity.

To solve this issue, we add a special flag that tells the kernel
to avoid polling the device (and expect unsolicited reports) and set it
when report field with physical usage of digitizer stylus (HID_DG_STYLUS).
Unless this flag is set, and we have not seen the unsolicited reports,
the kernel will attempt to poll the device when userspace attempts to
read "capacity" and "state" attributes of power_supply object
corresponding to the devices battery.

commit 6de0b13cc0b4ba10e98a9263d7a83b940720b77a upstream.

When size is negative, calling memset will make segment fault.
Declare the size as type u32 to keep memset safe.

size in struct hid_report is unsigned, fix return type of
hid_report_len to u32.

<title>HID: hid-multitouch: support fine-grain orientation reporting</title>

<content type='text'>
The current hid-multitouch driver only allow the report of two
orientations, vertical and horizontal. We use the Azimuth orientation
usage 0x3F under the Digitizer usage page to report orientation if the
device supports it.

Changelog:
  v1 -&gt; v2:
   - Fix commit message.
   - Remove resolution reporting for ABS_MT_ORIENTATION.
  v2 -&gt; v3:
   - Fix commit message.
  v3 -&gt; v4:
   - Fix ABS_MT_ORIENTATION ABS param range.
   - Don't set ABS_MT_ORIENTATION in ABS_DG_HEIGHT when it is already
     set by ABS_DG_AZIMUTH.
  v4 -&gt; v5:
   - Improve multi-touch-protocol.rst documentation.

<title>HID: core: remove the absolute need of hid_have_special_driver[]</title>

<content type='text'>
Most HID devices behave properly when they are used with hid-generic.
Since kernel v4.12, we do not poll for input reports at plug in, so
hid-generic should behave properly with all HID devices.

There has been a long standing list of HID devices that have a special
driver. It used to be just a few, but with time, this list went too big,
and we can not ask users to know which HID special driver will pick up
their device.

We can teach hid-generic to be nice with others. If a device is not
explicitly marked with HID_QUIRK_HAVE_SPECIAL_DRIVER, we can allow
hid-generic to pick up the device as long as no other loaded HID driver
will match the device.

When the special driver appears, hid-generic can step back and let
the special driver handling the device. In case this special driver
is removed, this good old pal of hid-generic will rebind to the device.

This basically makes the list hid_have_special_driver[] useless. It
still allows to not see a hid-generic driver bound and removed during
boot, so we can keep it around.

This will also help other people to have a special HID driver without
the need of recompiling hid-core.

It is better to centralize the information of special devices in one
single file. Instead of manually parsing the list of devices that
have a special driver or those that need to be ignored, introduce
HID_QUIRK_HAVE_SPECIAL_DRIVER and set the correct quirks while fetching
those quirks.

usbhid has a list of dynamic quirks in addition to a list of static quirks.
There is not much USB specific in that, so move this part of the module
in core so we can have one central place for quirks.

Computes and forwards the device timestamp according to the specification.

Many devices use a 16-bit timestamp field, with a resolution of 100us,
therefore rolling around very frequently (every 6.5 seconds). To make sure
there is no ambiguity, the timestamp reported to the input stack reset to
0 whenever the time between 2 received events is greater than
MAX_TIMESTAMP_INTERVAL (1 second).
