This changes corsair-cpro to a hid driver using hid reports.

Signed-off-by: Marius Zachmann <mail@mariuszachmann.de>

---
Changes from v1
- add comment at the beginning about using hid and hidraw
- use hwmon_device_register_with_info and hwmon_device_unregister
- use a define for timeout

Sorry for not noticing before, but can you use module_hid_driver() ?
That seems to work for other hid drivers.

Thanks,

When using module_hid_driver() and compiling the driver as built-in
the driver init function will get called before hid and fail registering
the driver. late_initcall forces it to be loaded after hid.

Greetings,
Marius

That seems odd. Why does no other hid driver have that problem ?
Your argument is pretty much that module_hid_driver() would not work,
which seems unlikely.

Guenter

The order of initcalls is determined by the build order. Hwmon subsystem
gets build before hid subsystem and therefore the initcalls are earlier
than hid. But hid_register_driver needs the hid driver to be there.

Marius

Hmm. I am not happy, but I guess we'll have to live with it.

Can you add the detailed explanation to the comment above ?
"make sure it is loaded after hid" doesn't tell the whole story,
and I want to avoid having to deal with "cleanup" patches later.

Alternatively, I wonder if it would make sense to force
this driver to be built as module. Have you thought about that ?

Thanks,
Guenter
