The format '%*ph' print up to 64 bytes long as a hex string with ' '
sepatator. Usually the size of report descriptor is larger than 64
bytes, so consider using print_hex_dump_debug to print out all of it for
better debugging.

Maybe it makes sense to use a prefix for the hex dump that is easy to
trace rather than padding whitespace? This looks good when you do not
see any other kernel message log lines get interlaced when written.
However, if you have a lot of concurrent kernel message output, I think
it can be tough to piece together the lines of the dump with this
prefix. Just my opinion.

That's a good opinion. I'll make a v2 version.

Thanks.

But that would dump it unconditionally, while i2c_hid_dbg() is
conditional.

Function print_hex_dump_debug() dump messages is as conditional as
i2c_hid_dbg().

The function i2c_hid_dbg() defines as follows:
#define i2c_hid_dbg(ihid, ...) dev_dbg(&(ihid)->client->dev, __VA_ARGS__)

dev_dbg() depends on the same macro as print_hex_dump_debug().

I agree with this point. Both dev_dbg and print_hex_dump_debug are noops
if neither CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is set or DEBUG is defined.
