This implementation is perfectly fine (I am referring to the "fixed/updated"):
- if your device should be driven by hid-multitouch, then you _don't_
add it to hid_have_special_driver
- if your device should not be driven by hid-multitouch, then you
_need_ to add it to hid_have_special_driver.

Adding the device to hid_have_special_driver prevents the detection of
the group HID_GRP_MULTITOUCH, so you will not end with a race between
hid-multitouch and your special hid driver.

You are missing a commit message here (the first message you sent
would fit perfectly here).

Other than that, I played a little with the report descriptor pointed
in the bugzilla.

I think I will be able to handle this touch cover in hid-multitouch,
but that would require more testings/debugging. Microsoft seems to
have implemented an indirect (dual) touchpad here, but until we know
which mode we should put it into, it's going to be tricky to set it up
correctly.

One last thing, in the bugzilla, in the comment 2 you say: "I still
have issues with the type cover 2 even with this fix". Are you still
experiencing those disconnection? If so, maybe we should switch to
hid-multitouch at some point.


So to sum up, with the commit message amended:
