Subject: [PATCH] HID: i2c-hid: improve i2c_hid_get_report error message

We have two places to print "failed to set a report to ...",
use "get a report from" instead of "set a report to", it makes
people who knows less about the module to know where the error
happened.

Before:
i2c_hid_acpi i2c-FTSC1000:00: failed to set a report to device: -11

After:
i2c_hid_acpi i2c-FTSC1000:00: failed to get a report from device: -11
