Sounds reasonable. What happens when a tweak_* routine does nothing
or returns an error.

tweak_reset_device_cmd() returns 0 when it can't get the device lock
and after calling usb_reset_device().

tweak_set_interface_cmd() and tweak_clear_halt_cmd() return the value
the usb_* routine they call. Don't these cases be handled as well?
