Yes, not happy about it either. I looked for other sensible places too
hook the info at probe time, but this was just the simplest. I'll take
another look...

I find it very wrong to mix the connector format with what you want to
output. In my mind it's a broken assumption that they are related. It is
only correct for trivial cases. Also note my comment about the connector
index and the endpoint index, they are only coincidentally the same
based on our implementation. If the driver has more than one port or
initializes endpoints out of order for some reason, this is no longer
true.

I think it would be better to store this info somewhere near the encoder,
since that is what I find closest to what I'm trying to change.

As I said, I'll take another look and see if I can hook this in at some
other place.
