I don't know if it will work at all, but Aric already started to work on 
this area, see 
http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/history/HEAD:/dlls/hid. I think 
the idea is to unify hid device access logic, and move it to a single 
place that could contain plarform-specific bits still offering same 
interface to clients.

CC'ing Aric, to make sure he doesn't miss this.
