Yes, I gave it a try here, and it looks like there's definitely some
breakages for non-updated controllers. It breaks the Covert Forces
edition Xbox One controller (0x045e, 0x02dd) and also another non-upgraded
Xbox One S controller of the same model as the affected controller
(0x045e, 0x02ea, firmware 3.1.1221.0).

On the plus side, it _does_ seem to fix the issue.

One thing that strikes me as odd about this init packet is that it looks
like 2 packets strung together. Most of the other init packets have 0x20
as their second byte, and there's even something resembling a sequence
number in the third byte (0x02). Maybe these are supposed to be separate
init packets?

Hopefully we can find some init sequence that at least the One S controller
can tolerate on all known firmware versions. If not, the firmware rev is
available to us in bcdDevice, but I'd only like to use an explicit version
check as a last resort.
