Use of bitfields for on the wire structures makes me uneasy. I know that
currently you only going to run LE on LE, but still, maybe using
explicit shifts and masks would be better,

Same here.

I do not see anything using keycode table? This is wrong level for it
regardless.

You are aligning with tabs half of declarations, leaving the others. Can
we not align at all?

Do you also want to set up serio's parent device to point to hv device?

Serio ports are refcounted, do not free them explicitly after they have
been registered.
