3.16.7-ckt8 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina at suse.cz>

commit 8e7b341037db1835ee6eea64663013cbfcf33575 upstream.

The ignore check that got added in 6ce901eb61 ("HID: input: fix confusion
on conflicting mappings") needs to properly check for VARIABLE reports
as well (ARRAY reports should be ignored), otherwise legitimate keyboards
might break.

Fixes: 6ce901eb61 ("HID: input: fix confusion on conflicting mappings")
