This is missing le16_to_cpu().
I agree this is awful, but not putting it allows me to not have to
check the endianness when I'm using it.
But I may be totally wrong on this.
I'm afraid I don't follow you. I want to see:

        u16 readRegister = le16_to_cpu(ihid->hdesc.wDataRegister);

If you don't do that, your driver is broken on bigendian systems. And
there's no need to "check the endianness when you're using it", the
above should be enough for things to work just fine.
a little bit late, but yes, you are entirely right. I was confused by
the fact that I only wanted to use the number coming from the device
to communicate with it, but as I made bit shifting within the CPU, I
need to convert it.
So forget my previous words here, it is fixed in v2.

Thanks
Benjamin
