HID_QUIRK_ALWAYS_POLL :)

Some usb devices do not like to not be polled and keep
disconnecting/reconnecting. Looks like the Intuos 3 is one of them.
The only cons are that the device won't save power when no one is reading
the inputs. Not sure if that is a requirement for Wacom tablets though.

Note that HID_QUIRK_ALWAYS_POLL should make this patch useless in these
cases, the kernel will keep track of the current device because it will
receive the events.
