Hi, awesome work!
I've got a PW4 running 5.11.2 (kernel is 4.1.15-lab126).
I tried replicating your changes in the kernel tree and building the module but it looks like there's a big leap between 3.0.35 and 4.1.15 so needless to say it doesn't even compile.
All I wanted to do is to use a USB keyboard on the kindle and I think this might be the only missing part since usbhid, hid and stuff are already built into the kindle's kernel.

Could you by any chance update the procedure / code for it to work on 4.1.15?
