If an extension device isn't initialized properly, or during hardware initialization, a device might send extension data which is all 0xff. This is ambigious because this is also a valid normal data report. But it is impossible, under normal conditions, to trigger valid reports with all 0xff. Hence, we can safely ignore them.
