HID device lying about Usage

Hi,

I have a HID device that declares itself as a keyboard, but isn't, which
I'd like to use under Linux.

I can see three options:

 - Add an IGNORE quirk to the table, and use the device via the
   endpoints.
 - Invent a new quirk that prevents the device from being connected to
   anything but hidraw.
 - Add a new hidraw ioctl that disconnects all other report sinks.

Option 3 could possibly be combined with option 2 to form a more generic
solution, but is obviously the most intrusive approach.

Which way should I go?
