Why do we need both CONFIG_EMS and CONFIG_EMS_FF? There is no 'generic' 
EMS driver that would care for the device without FF support. So I'd say 
that introducing CONFIG_HID_EMS_FF solely should be enough (and build the 
driver only if this option is selected).

This is a little bit odd, as your patch should be creating a new file that 
didn't exist before, so it should rather look like

	diff --git a/drivers/hid/hid-emsff.c b/drivers/hid/hid-emsff.c
	new file mode 100644
	index 0000000..c61b192 100644
	--- /dev/null
	+++ b/drivers/hid/hid-emsff.c

otherise it couldn't be applied cleanly.

Apart from that, the driver looks fine, thanks for doing the work!

Could you please fix the issues mentioned above and re-send?

Thanks,
