HID: logitech: move dj devices to the HID++ module
Devices connected through the Logitech Wireless Receiver are HID++
devices.
We can handle them here to benefit from this new module and activate
enhaced support of the various wireless touchpad or mice with touch
sensors on them.

-------
The normal hid driver is not used for some logitech keyboards, which leads to problems unlocking full disk encryption because the driver is not packaged into the initramfs image, after kernel compilation (also missing and thus not functioning in the 4.x images of linux mint)
So the problem is very equivalent to https:/

Bump,
Im not an authoity to change this, but could someone point me in the right direction,
This was on the linux kernel dev list untill we figured out the error was made in the initramfs-tools
And It would be niuce that I dide not bisect trough 5000+ kernel revisions for nothing.
