From 1662e3a7f076e51e3073faf9ce77157b529c475b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 14:28:53 -0400 Subject: USB: add quirk to avoid config and interface strings Apparently the Configuration and Interface strings aren't used as often as the Vendor, Product, and Serial strings. In at least one device (a Saitek Cyborg Gold 3D joystick), attempts to read the Configuration string cause the device to stop responding to Control requests. This patch (as1226) adds a quirks flag, telling the kernel not to read a device's Configuration or Interface strings, together with a new quirk for the offending joystick.
