The part "I'm sure it breaks other devices" perhaps?
I am no HID expert so I can't judge this, but I haven't had any problems with this patch and my devices. Without this patch the hiddev interface of the Logitech HID/Bluetooth dongle is not usable. The report we need to send has 6 fields of one byte size, but through the hiddev it is only presented as one field of one byte size. With this patch we got access to all 6 fields and can send the correct report.
When I said "I'm sure it breaks other devices" I really wasn't sure because I totally thought of this patch as a hack. However, the more I think about it, I don't think it will break the functionality of any other devices considering that any HID devices that did work properly under Linux had a 1-1 correspondence between usages and controls. In those cases the patch wouldn't change anything.
