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? 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?FYI, I've submitted a GC adapter driver previously [1]. I've been using it since then; the patch still applies to recent kernels. I'd be happy to work towards having this driver mainlined, if there is interest for it.
I am definitely interested! I have been using a user-space driver for the time being, but that’s not a good solution.
