Hi David,
this is rather difficult to get by quickly looking at the code, so I'd like to have a slightly better overview of what the device really is.
Is it talking HID protocol on the SMBus? (if so, there is a hid-i2c transport driver for it already). But I guess this is not really the case, as you seem to be using the USB HID functionality as well.
Thanks in advance for some more background.
