I think I would be happy to see the input comp_mask removed
entirely. I can't see a possible use for input data to a QUERY command
that wouldn't be better served by creating a new command

But forcing the value to 0 seems reasonable as well.

Also, the _ex varients were supposed to be supersets of the base call,
so it is wrong that query_device_ex doesn't return all the same data
as query_device, layed out so that the original response structure is
a prefix of the extended response structure.

The other _ex calls in verbs were designed that way so it will be
surprising to the user that this one is different.
