Subject: HID: clean up quirk for Sony RF receivers
From: Fernando Luis Vázquez Cao <fernando_b1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 99d249021abd4341771523ed8dd7946276103432 upstream.
Document what the fix-up is does and make it more robust by ensuring
that it is only applied to the USB interface that corresponds to the
mouse (sony_report_fixup() is called once per interface during probing).
