HID: add compat support
Add compat option to hid code to allow loading of all modules on systems which don't allow autoloading because of old userspace. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

+ Compatible option for older userspace. If you have system without udev
