After firmware update, the device may have a completely different object table which corresponds to an input device with different properties. So, destroy the old state before firmware update, and completely reinitialize the driver afterward. Two benefits of this: 1) Since there is no input device during fw update, no need to worry about device open/close events. 2) If firmware update fails, the device and driver will still be in bootloader mode and an improperly configured input device will not exist.
