Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/hid/hid
Pull HID fixes from Jiri Kosina:

 - revert of the high-resolution scrolling feature, as it breaks certain
   hardware due to incompatibilities between Logitech and Microsoft
   worlds. Peter Hutterer is working on a fixed implementation. Until
   that is finished, revert by Benjamin Tissoires.

 - revert of incorrect strncpy->strlcpy conversion in uhid, from David
   Herrmann

 - fix for buggy sendfile() implementation on uhid device node, from
   Eric Biggers

 - a few assorted device-ID specific quirks
