I think the similarities come from all using wrappers over the PMBus
interface to the voltage controller. But I am not sure the wrapping
protocols are identical.
For example, cpsumon shows significantly more things going on during a
read than what is needed for the RMi/HXi series.[1]

The corsairlink_driver_dongle has no implementations for reading sensor
data (compare that with the corsairlink_driver_rmi).[2][3] There is
also no code that actually tries to read (write) from (to) the device
using that dongle driver.[4]
I also looked at a few of the issues, and all of the ones I read
mentioned AXi support being under development, and the hypothesis of the
AXi series being compatible with the RMi/HXi code still remaining to be
confirmed.

I could be wrong (and I am sorry for the noise if that is the case), but
as far as I can see the cp210x does not create a HID device.
