 it : drivers/iio/access/wiegand.c or drivers/iio/security/wiegand.c?

Question here is why is this ideal for iio versus using the input subsystem=
?

Also a few issues/points:

* What is the interface to the Wiegand data? If it is inputting on a
GPIO that is for sure not going to be real time enough to get valid
data
* Aren't there multiple Wiegand transport standards?
* Most keyreaders I've seen are emulated as keyboard devices so they
use the input subsystem.
* Also if the data being output is ASCII data, then I'm not sure that
fits anywhere in iio
