"Reverse Christmas Tree" ordering please (longest to shortest, and it's OK to
group like types:

int value = 0x6e;
int query;
int ret;

It's also fine to group like types, preferred by some maintainers, I'm not
particular, but do appreciate consistency.

int value = 0x6e;
int query, ret;

Both are acceptable.

Is there a reason 0x6e doesn't merit some kind of a HP_WMI_QUERY_XYZ define?

The problem with this is it doesn't distinguish between the feature not being
present, and an actual failure, since it doesn't capture the ret of
FEATURE2_QUERY.

Consider the possible return values for FEATURE2_QUERY on devices with the
feature and devices without, does the above code do the right thing in all
cases?

Right, rolling it together with a semi-related change is OK for things like in
my opinion. But do make note of it in the changelog.
