Debido a que appleir_input_configured() nunca se llama, hidinput_connect() falla, lo que provoca que no se configure el indicador HID_CLAIMED_INPUT. Sin embargo, esto no provoca el fallo de appleir_probe() y permite que la devolución de llamada del evento se llame sin el dispositivo de entrada asociado. Por lo tanto, se debe añadir una comprobación para el indicador HID_CLAIMED_INPUT y abandonar el gancho de evento antes de tiempo si el controlador no solicitó ningún input_dev por alguna razón. Además, otros controladores HID que acceden a input_dev en sus devoluciones de llamada de evento también tienen comprobaciones similares.
