The attached patch is required to use some (buggy?)
USB keyboards. IMHO it should not cause new problems
with other HID devices (though, testing with hardware that
I do not have is a good idea).
I'm using it with recent 2.4 kernels for some time now.
Just removing the call to usb_set_idle also works (but
it is less efficient).
The 2.5 kernels do not need this changes - they already call
the equivalent of usb_set_idle (only for input reports) after
reading the first report.
