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 for the tip, is it possible to ignore some usages with this
method (done in the default case)?

Thanks,
