Hi Drivers like picolcd and wiimote work without the generic hid drivers (hidinput, hidraw, hiddev). Therefore, we need to make sure that the hid-core does not drop the device when no driver claimed it. This introduces the HID_CLAIMED_OTHER flag which can be set by said drivers to tell hid-core to allow the device without a generic driver loaded. Patch 2 and 3 convert picolcd and wiimote to use this new flag.
