[PD] HID segfault

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

The segfault is most likely caused by the syn event not being handled  
properly.  None of my devices report syn events, so I haven't  
encountered them.  But so far, all of the recent crash reports have  
been with devices that report syn events.

I am pretty slammed this week with other things, but next week, I plan  
on diving back into [hid], fixing bugs, and adding more features.
