Some Vaio desktop computers, among them the VGC-LN51JGB multimedia PC, have

The keyboard works flawlessly, but the mouse (VGP-WMS3 in my case) does not
seem to be generating any pointer events. The problem is that the mouse pointer
is wrongly declared as a constant non-data variable in the report descriptor
(see lsusb and usbhid-dump output below), with the consequence that it is
ignored by the HID code.
Add this device to the have-special-driver list and fix up the report
descriptor in the Sony-specific driver which happens to already have a fixup
for a similar firmware bug.
Applied, thanks.
Thank you.
I noticed that the patch was tagged "for-3.9". Does this mean
that it is too late to get it merged during the current release
cycle?
If possible, I would like to get it backported to 3.7-stable (and
possibly 3.2 stable), since without it a whole family of Sony
desktop computers is unusable under Linux out of the box.
Should I do it myself or do you have a process in place for HID
stable patches?
Regards,
Fernando
