It's defined as 0xfe in our driver.

However a similar model might make sense instead of manually building packets all the time. We can extend __hci_cmd_sync() function with a new parameter 'type'. This way we can pass HCI_VENDOR_PKT into __hci_cmd_sync(), while other drivers will pass in HCI_COMMAND_PKT. Our driver will make HCI_VENDOR_PKT -> MRVL_VENDOR_PKT conversion before downloading the frame to firmware. And the MRVL_VENDOR_PKT frame from firmware will be replaced with HCI_VENDOR_PKT while uploading the frame to stack. Please let us know if this approach works for you or not.
