the module seems to break hid-steam #78

If I try to use Steam Controller after using a wheel (so when hid-logitech-new is loaded into memory) I after some time experience random disconnects and freezes of the controller. Unloading this module first seems to fix the issue. Maybe, some timing settings go off or something.

(BTW, this dual naming "hid-logitech/hid-logitech-new" is problematic in itself. I can't unload the module with modprobe -r, as it can't find "hid-logitech-new", and when using modprobe -r hid-logitech it silently ends, but the module still stays in lsmod output. Only rmmod hid-logitech-new does the trick.)

I don't think this module can affect the Steam Controller. It's the only report and it will probaby be hard to reproduce. I'll need some help.

I think the reason for the different name was to tell them apart when loaded. I use rmmod hid-logitech-new, I don't know why it doesn't work with modprobe -r. I'll do some tests.

Hmmm... Actually I just noticed weird Steam Controller behaviour even without hid-logitech-new loading since reboot. It might happen to be some unrelated issue, maybe even hardware one, and its happening after a wheel being connected is just a coincidence...
