In El Capitan, I can't drive my ccid device.

Smart card reader drivers are located in "/usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers/" in os x 10.10 and before. In El Capitan 10.11 it is no more possible to add files in /usr because of the new security protection. Is there any way to add files in "/usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers/" without disabling SIP(System Integrity Protection)? Under path of "/usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers/",there is an info.plist file in ccid driver( ifd-ccid.bundle). Is there any way to add 'ifdVendorID' and 'ifdProductID' key-value into info.plist in ifd-ccid.bundle without disabling SIP(System Integrity Protection)?

According to the SmartCardServices man page <x-man-page://7/SmartCardServices>, I install my driver in "/usr/local/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers", but the driver is not detected by the system. What should I do to drive my ccid devide.

Have you had any luck with this? I am in the same position, have installed my driver to /usr/local/libexec/SmartCardService/drivers/ but the pcsc service does not seem to be loading this driver.
