Re: [PATCH 0/2] hid: corsair: Driver simplification and new supported device

So, I decided to move all USB related features in user-space (as far as 
I know, I was the only user, but if someone is looking for a 
replacement, I wrote a small tool available here: 
https://github.com/cvuchener/corsair-usb-config). This simplification 
only leaves the usage code remapping part and the driver no longer 
depends on USB and LED subsystems. This should make the driver easier to 
maintain or to add new supported devices.

While you are performing this move, is there anything that's actually 
preventing you from doing the remapping from userspace as well?

HID subsystem has for long time been providing the setkeycode() hook for 
remapping usages, and udev (well, more precisely, that s*****d thing) is 
actually shipping a lot of hw-specific remap data these days.

Thanks,
