Bug description:
  SRU Criteria
  ============
  [Impact]
  The X server may crash after connecting a bluetooth keyboard.

  [Development Fix]
  The Q series is not open for development yet.

  [Stable Fix]
  Please see the attached patch midispcur.c.patch.

  [Test Case]
  Connect a bluetooth keyboard and use it for five minutes. Check if X server has crashed.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low. The patch merely short circuits code that may dereference a NULL pointer. It is possible that this causes a further issue, but such an issue is likely to be at worst just as bad as without this fix.

  Original Bug Report
  ===================
  X crashes after connect bluetooth keyboard.
  With bluetooth mouse everything ok, crash only when i connect keyboard.

  After connecting the keyboard works and i can use it. Failure occurs
  in the interval between 30 seconds and 5 minutes after connecting. It
  does not depend on whether I'm typing on a keyboard or not.

  On Ubuntu Lucid same error
