Ok, just for the record (I think that you already answered this in the
4/11 review):
this behavior has been added in commit
811adb9622de310efbb661531c3ec0ae5d2b2bc0 for Synaptics so they can
talk to their HID/I2C firmware.
The use they are making is through hdev->hid_output_raw_report(), and
at that time output_report() did not exist.
I guess that with the new API (output_report() and raw_request() ) we
can revert this and it will not bother them given that rmi-hid.c is
still not upstream.
I have no clue if anyone else is using hdev->hid_output_raw_report()
for I2C devices, but we could still try to clean this right now given
that those devices are not well spread (besides some hid-multitouch
touchscreens which do not use OUTPUT reports).
I am still a little bit concerned by hidraw not able to call
set_report in this case, but this could be fixed also by adding an
ioctl.
How does that sound?
Cheers,
Benjamin
