Instead of writing a specific fallback in case hid->ll_driver->request
does not exist, I think it would make sense to implement a generic
hid_hw_request function in hid-input, so that HIDP and UHID will
benefit from it. I think it will be better because the implementation
I made in i2c-hid.c is nearly the exact same calls than the fallback
here.

with a generic hid_hw_request in hid-input, the else is simpler here.

You missed the multi-lines comment formatting style on this one :)
