Question is if this identifies itself as HID device. If it does, it would either have to be blacklisted in the HID core, or it would have to be implemented as hid driver. The latter would be preferred, since otherwise a userspace application accessing it directly would no longer work. Either case, the driver can and should still reside in hwmon; that was not the question. Thanks, Guenter
