    HID Sensor Spec defines two usage ids for custom sensors
    
    	HID_USAGE_SENSOR_TYPE_OTHER_CUSTOM (0x09, 0xE1)
    	HID_USAGE_SENSOR_TYPE_OTHER_GENERIC(0x09, 0xE2)
    
    	In addition the standard also defines usage ids for custom fields.
    The purpose of these sensors is to extend the functionality or provide a way to
    obfuscate the data being communicated by a sensor. Without knowing the mapping
    between the data and its encapsulated form, it is difficult for an driver to
    determine what data is being communicated by the sensor.  This allows some
    differentiating use cases, where vendor can provide applications.  Since these
    can't be represented by standard sensor interfaces like IIO, we present these
    as fields with
    
    - type (input/output)
    - units
    - min/max
    - get/set value
    
    In addition an dev interface to transfer report events. Details about this
    interface is described in /Documentation/hid/hid-sensor.txt.  Manufacturers
    should not use these ids for any standard sensors, otherwise the the
    product/vendor id can be added to black list.
