Output reports should be working. Only thing missing is feature input
reports. They are not implemented yet. However, what driver (except
hidraw and picolcd) uses them?

Do you actually handle the UHID_OUTPUT and UHID_OUTPUT_EV events from
UHID? I have looked at the HoG code recently and haven't seen any code
that correctly parses UHID_OUTPUT_EV packets? These packets contain
LED (capslock, numlock etc.) updates so the keyboard can actually set
them. They also contain BELL/SOUND codes for such devices. Only other
non-standard stuff is sent through UHID_OUTPUT reports. If there are
problems with it, I can help implementing this.

Regarding UHID, I will send an updated version this weekend which
mainly improves the internal buffer handling. The API will stay the
same, however, I might implement the feature input reports, then
everything should be ready for merging upstream (if the review cycles
go well ;)).
