drivers: hid: renegotiate resolution multipliers with device after reset
The scroll resolution multipliers are set in the context of
hidinput_connect(), which is only called at probe time: when the host
changes the value on the device with a SET_REPORT(FEATURE), and the device
accepts it, these multipliers are stored on the host side, and used to
calculate the final scroll event values sent to userspace.
After a USB suspend, the resume operation on many hubs and chipsets
involve a USB reset signal as well. A reset on the device side clears all
previous state information, including the value of the multiplier report.
This reset is not handled by the multiplier handling logic, so what ends up
happening is the host is still expecting high-resolution scroll events,
but the device is reset to default resolution, making the effective,
user-perceived scroll speed incredibly slow.
The solution is to renegotiate the multiplier selection after each reset.
This is not the only bug related to the high-resolution scrolling
implementation in the kernel (the other one is
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220144), but for this one,
there is no device side workaround for, leading to poor user experience with our product:

https://github.com/UltimateHackingKeyboard/firmware/issues/1261
https://github.com/UltimateHackingKeyboard/firmware/pull/1355
This patch was tested by an affected user and has been reported to
fix the issue (see discussion in 1355).
