This may seem redundant given that it would live in drivers/usb/serial, but I thought it was appropriate given that the device provides more than one interface so there could be a "vivopay-hid" driver in the future. Is this the right approach? Also, do you have an opinion on proliferation of these kinds of trivial usb-serial drivers? Is it possible to have too many?
