Hi Pascal,

usbmouse and usbkbd shouldn't be loaded at all on a standard system. These 
modules are pretty non-standard and should be used only in really extreme 
cases.

On the other hand you are right that making them honor the 
HID_QUIRK_IGNORE* blacklist entries makes sense.

Could you please add your Signed-off-by to your patch, so that I can take 
it through my tree?

Thanks,
