HID: steam: remove input device when a hid client is running.
Previously, when a HID client such as the Steam Client was running, this driver disabled its input device to avoid doubling the input events. While it worked mostly fine, some games got confused by the idle gamepad, and switched to two player mode, or asked the user to choose which gamepad to use. Other games just crashed, probably a bug in Unity [1]. With this commit, when a HID client starts, the input device is removed; when the HID client ends the input device is recreated.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
