Microsoft Explorer Touch Mouse: not recognized 2 hardware buttons

I've a problemy with Microsoft Explorer Touch Mouse: xorg doesnt recognize two additional buttons of my mouse.

In xinput those buttons are marked as "Button Unknown" (259) and  "Button Unknown" (259):

$ xinput list-props 10|grep 'Button Labels'
        Button Labels (275):    "Button 0" (260), "Button Unknown" (259), "Button Unknown" (259), "Button Wheel Up" (144), "Button Wheel Down" (145), "Button Horiz Wheel Left" (146), "Button Horiz Wheel Right" (147)

If I do the xinput test 12 I don't get anything clicking those buttons.

Doing:

mount -t debugfs none_debugfs /sys/kernel/debug
modprobe usbmon
cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/usbmon/3u

I get different keycodes clicking those buttons. Unique to other buttons so those buttons are hardware buttons for sure.

How to aproach this problem?

Should I report this to kernel developers?
