Hi,

please see these discussions:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/7/129
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/2/10/434
	http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-usb/2009/6/2/5849723/thread#mid-5849723	

My current plan is to remove the blacklist entry for this combination of 
VID/PID completely, and let the user decide and unbind the driver via 
sysfs eventually if needed (and probably spit some warning to dmesg once 
this kind of device is detected to be present).

Vendors are sometimes messing up things in very creative ways indeed ...
