yep, as you saw already :)

You probably already got it, but it all depends on how much data is
used on the wire:
- if you have 2 bytes used per each value, then the report size will
be 16 and you set the logical max to 2047
- if the values are packed, then the report size is 11, and then you
probably have to add padding *after* the 22 bits.

No, this is actually easy to describe. You say that there is one usage
of "something" which has a report size of 1 bit, and then you have
another usage of "something else" with the same report size.
But usually you have to add padding after to make up to 8 bits (so 6
bits in that case).
I was referring to the case where you are parsing the same bit on the
wire, and give a different usage based if you have received an odd or
an even number of reports. In that case, we probably need to use move
this bit to a const field in the original report descriptor and say
that the data is now not const:
- initial report (completely random example):
X (2 bytes) | Y (2 bytes) | button this_or_that (1 bit, depending of
odd or even received reports) | 7 bits of padding
- we can declare it as:
X (2 bytes) | Y (2 bytes) | button this (1 bit) | button that (1
bit) | 6 bits of padding
and have raw_event do the translation for the button "this_or_that"
that would populate the correct bit in the translated report.
