Yes, hidinput_allocate() clearly steals the reference here. However,
fixing this in hid-core would not be simpler: some drivers (ntrig does
at least) assume that there is no need to free input->name, which means
that:
- either we need to fix each individual driver
- either we introduce some kind of mechanism in order not to free "const
char *" declarations like it happens in ntrig.

In v2, I'll just realloc for each input the input->name, and then if the
pen is here, then it will realloc the new name.

Cheers,
Benjamin
