I've run into an instant road block. The controller claims
bInterfaceClass to be 0xFF (Vendor-specific) so usbhid won't probe it. I
didn't think it would be so difficult to work around that but I've spent
the better part of today trying to figure out just that. usbhid is a
usb_driver that has only one requirement to be probed: bInterfaceClass
be 0x03. Unfortunately, the device fails this requirement.
Does anyone know of a way around this mechanism? Or perhaps I should
take a different approach?
