The code looks good to me, the only question/request I'd have is -- would 
it be possible to adhere to the driver naming standards, and actually 
incorporate the support to existing hid-nintendo driver? Or is there any 
substantial reason which I don't see why this wouldn't be a good idea?
I don’t see any existing driver named that way in mainline, would it be
acceptable to simply rename the current patches to hid-nintendo?  What
should be done about the existing hid-wiimote driver then, should it
also be merged alongside?
hid-nintendo has just recently been staged for 5.16 in 
hid.git#for-5.16/nintendo git branch. Could you please check that?
Another driver I’d like to submit eventually is the GameCube Controller 
Adapter for Wii U, which does exactly what its name says, but being an 
external USB adapter it also works on any USB computer; would it make 
sense to develop it alongside the current driver, just because it is 
sold by the same company?
We generally group the support for HID devices in drivers based on the 
producing company, with a few exceptions where it doesn't make sense.

Thanks,
