Hi Andrey. I'm glad someone is still interested in this. 
Yes, the device must first be supported by the kernel, according to Peter 
Hutterer 's comment in the freedesktop bug. If this driver is included in a 
module it will be only imported into the kernel when the device is present, 
just like any other driver.
I haven't investigated yet what's the preferred way to communicate the kernel 
space driver to the user space, but there should be documentation about this. 
You could also check out how a touchpad driver works.
Please do keep us posted if you make any progress.
