Title:
  HID_ASUS should depend on USB_HID in stable v4.15 backports

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Backported to bionic/linux commit f83baa0cb6cf ("HID: add hid_is_usb() 
function to make it simpler for USB detection") brings to HID_ASUS usage of 
hid_is_usb() which is provided by USB_HID.  If HID_ASUS is built as module but 
USB_HID is not, the kernel build will fail (like linux-azure) did:
    ERROR: "usb_hid_driver" [drivers/hid/hid-asus.ko] undefined!

  [Fix]

  Because of backport of commit commit f83baa0cb6cf ("HID: add
  hid_is_usb() function to make it simpler for USB detection"), the
  bionic/linux needs also backport of commit c4f0126d487f ("HID: asus:
  Add depends on USB_HID to HID_ASUS Kconfig option").

  [Test Plan]

  Build HID_ASUS as module with or without USB_HID.

  [Where problems could occur]

  It's a new KConfig dependency, so configs using HID_ASUS without
  USB_HID will loose HID_ASUS. This is expected, so no problems should
  occur.
