Yep, I agree. That's for these cases that I preferred having a test
against wacom->shared not null rather than (features->quirks &
WACOM_QUIRK_MULTI_INPUT).

Yes. 24hdt has the quirk WACOM_QUIRK_MULTI_INPUT, so wacom->shared can
not be null. I wonder what we could put in the code to make static
checkers happy...


Thanks for the report and the analysis!
