It is not "dead code" in that even if it is unnecessarily compiled, it will not be linked. So no harm done other than wasted compile time. It was moved out of the conditional logic with commit 1ba22407623cb60c54e89969c13ea2e227dff9fd in 2011 but I don't know why. That was too long ago to reconstruct what was going on. Perhaps it was used by other logic at some time? Perhaps it was used by a HID device side driver (drivers/usbdev)? Perhaps a custom driver that is not in the repository? This is third party code that could have some value in the future. Any complex HID driver would need this parsing logic. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
