Nicolas Saenz Julienne 320b29ffa0 HID: core: move Usage Page concatenation to Main item
[ Upstream commit 58e7515500 ]

As seen on some USB wireless keyboards manufactured by Primax, the HID
parser was using some assumptions that are not always true. In this case
it's s the fact that, inside the scope of a main item, an Usage Page
will always precede an Usage.

The spec is not pretty clear as 6.2.2.7 states "Any usage that follows
is interpreted as a Usage ID and concatenated with the Usage Page".
While 6.2.2.8 states "When the parser encounters a main item it
concatenates the last declared Usage Page with a Usage to form a
complete usage value." Being somewhat contradictory it was decided to
match Window's implementation, which follows 6.2.2.8.

In summary, the patch moves the Usage Page concatenation from the local
item parsing function to the main item parsing function.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
