2013-06-03	HID: wiimote: convert BATTERY to module	David Herrmann	1	-0/+98
	This introduces a new sub-device module for the BATTERY handlers. It moves the whole power_supply battery handling over to wiimote-modules. This doesn't change any semantics or ABI but only converts the battery handling into a sub-device module.

2013-06-03	HID: wiimote: convert KEYS and RUMBLE to modules	David Herrmann	1	-0/+134
	This introduces the first sub-device modules by converting the KEYS and RUMBLE sub-devices into wiimote modules. Both must be converted at once because they depend on the built-in shared input device. This mostly moves code from wiimote-core to wiimote-modules and doesn't change any semantics or ABI.

2013-06-03	HID: wiimote: add sub-device module infrastructure	David Herrmann	1	-0/+45
	To avoid loading all sub-device drivers for every Wii Remote, even though the required hardware might not be available, we introduce a module layer. The module layer specifies which sub-devices are available on each device-type. After device detection, we only load the modules for the detected device. If module loading fails, we unload everything and mark the device as WIIMOTE_DEV_UNKNOWN. As long as a device is marked as "unknown", no sub-devices will be used and the device is considered unsupported. All the different sub-devices, including KEYS, RUMBLE, BATTERY, LEDS, ACCELEROMETER, IR and more will be ported in follow-up patches to the new module layer.
