[RFC 0/1] User-space I/O driver for HID subsystem (Bluetooth-LE HIDP)

From: David Herrmann <hidden>

Hi

I have hacked together a small driver which allows user-space I/O drivers to
provide HID devices. This is needed for Bluetooth-Low-Energy HID devices as the
Bluetooth-LE protocol is parsed in user-space.

I have only compile-tested this driver, I haven't run it yet. It's just an
proposal how this could be implemented. It should also work as hint to the BT-LE
developers how such an interface will look-like.

Comments are welcome.
Regards
David
