OK, fair enough.
Do we have more users of such pattern? If so, it might make sense to
introduce a generic helper for that which takes a list of HIDs on
input.
(Yes, I do not like matching pattern like "XYZhh*", I prefer explicit
list of HIDs. Rationale to do so: a) any new potential collision is
excluded, b) we can easily grep kernel for a users per HID)
