Hi Oscar,

thanks a lot for the patch.

Keeping the support in hid-corsair would be prefered. I think the only
driver where we have the major kbd/mouse split is Holtek, which if I
remember correctly was my fault not having catched this during review; it
should probably eventually be unified.

Otherwsie, we don't really distinguish the device type (the HID land is
much wider than mice and keyboards anyway), but in most cases by the
vendor.

Could you please resubmit the patch so that it's actually adding changes
to hid-corsair? Thanks!
