I can confirm that the USB MIDI interface was not present while in MSD mode, but I could select higher sample rates without issue. The Focusrite docs say that higher sample rates and MIDI functionality are not available until you switch it out of MSD mode.
On the disk there is a README file and a link to the Focusrite web site setup/registration and download page the device serial number is included in the link to make it easier to register. Out of the box it comes in "MSD Mode" which means the device presents a small read-only virtual disk in addition to the PCM audio interface. My Linux driver to control the proprietary features is coming along well. TL DR: The class-compliant functionality works great in Linux! If you need the MIDI interface, take it out of MSD mode.
Of course I right away had a look as to its Linux compatibility and whether I'd be able to write a Gen 3 driver. A really generous guy just out of the blue purchased me a Scarlett 4i4 Gen 3 as a thank you for writing the Scarlett Gen 2 Linux driver.
