HID: pidff: Fix initialisation forMicrosoft Sidewinder FF Pro 2
commit afd700d9 upstream. The FF2 driver (usbhid/hid-pidff.c) sends commands to the stick during ff_init. However, this is called inside a block where driver_input_lock is locked, so the results of these initial commands are discarded. This behavior is the "killer", without this nothing else works. ff_init issues commands using "hid_hw_request". This eventually goes to hid_input_report, which returns -EBUSY because driver_input_lock is locked. The change is to delay the ff_init call in hid-core.c until after this lock has been released. Calling hid_device_io_start() releases the lock so the device can be configured. We also need to call hid_device_io_stop() on exit for the lock to remain locked while ending the init of the drivers.
