However I don't mind about hardcoding these values here.
The device report descriptor does not describe all the feature reports,
it never has and it's not really worth doing that IMHO.

I find this acceptable, more so considering that the current code does
exactly the same for feature report 0xf2.
The operations are just ping-of-life tricks, nothing we want to expose.

The error message is not accurate in this case.
You could use something like "can't set operational mode: step 2" to
differentiate between the errors and call "step 1" the previous one.

usb_interrupt_msg() is called in usbhid_output_report() indeed, so it
should be possible to use the generic HID interface.

And adjust this message accordingly. Call it "step 3" perhaps?
