The generic HID driver is obviously not a special driver, so move it outside of the special drivers menu. Explain the usage and make the default follow the HID setting. This should simplify migration from older kernels. While at it, remove the redundant HID_SUPPORT option and modify the HID and USB_HID entries to better explain the bus structure.

Say Y here if you want to connect USB keyboards,

mice, joysticks, graphic tablets, or any other HID based devices
|
|
to your computer via USB, as well as Uninterruptible Power Supply
|
|
(UPS) and monitor control devices.

You can't use this driver and the HIDBP (Boot Protocol) keyboard
|
|
and mouse drivers at the same time. More information is available:

<file:Documentation/input/input.txt>.

If unsure, say Y.

devices.

help
|
|
Say Y here if you want to support HID devices (from the USB
|
|
specification standpoint) that aren't strictly user interface
|
|
devices, like monitor controls and Uninterruptable Power Supplies.
|
|
|
|
This module supports these devices separately using a separate
|
|
event interface on /dev/usb/hiddevX (char 180:96 to 180:111).

If unsure, say Y.

Say Y here only if you are absolutely sure that you don't want
|
|
to use the generic HID driver for your USB keyboard and prefer
|
|
to use the keyboard in its limited Boot Protocol mode instead.
|
|
|
|
This is almost certainly not what you want. This is mostly
|
|
useful for embedded applications or simple keyboards.
