Hello,

- The wireless changes in here need a lot of testers, please. It is major
rework.

Works for me ... so far ;-) Anyway to the point:

When moving my laptop I reattached the usb mouse. Then I found this in syslog:

usb 2-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
usb 2-1: new device found, idVendor=046d, idProduct=c00e
usb 2-1: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0

=======================

hid_parse_report() is doing kmalloc(128k kbytes). We canot sanely support
that and the code shold be rewritten to not do that. A simple though
somewhat lame fix would be to switch to vmalloc().

It's been this way for some time, so it's odd that the failures have just
popped up now.
