Could please those of you who are able to reproduce the problem (from a
quick test seems that I am not) use 'addr2line' utility to convert the RIP
value (ffffffff817d0991 in this case) to the line number inside of
hiddev_open(), so that we can see whether it's something behind
usbhid_find_interface() causing NULL pointer dereference, or whether it is
intfdata being NULL and thus going to hid->hiddev faults?

(sticking two printk()s in there should do the same as well).

Thanks,
