Thanks for having a look, comments below.

I provide switching to the xy tablet mode by pressing a button during
runtime. So usb_control_msg() is called from the thread, not the
interrupt routine.

We don't get in the way of any user app. If we leave that functionality
out, users may have to un- and replug in the device after using
userspace apps that transfer data or the like.

I think I do it how others do it. Suspend/resume works. Anything
specific required here?

thanks!
